Thanks for reading. A lot of them are pretty much dead over on CU- not just forgotten, but all messed up by the formatting changes, dead pix,...
Ah. Goes to show you how good I am at recognizing the difference. LOL
As of early 2010, when I dusted this story off and reposted it on the Internet, this remains my oldest coin found so far. (UPDATE: not anymore!...

December, 2016: yep, here's another moldy oldie. Not really one of my better ones, either. But hey, since it still had working pictures over on...
