    Sorencoins, please excuse some of the comments above. Obviously they have better coins than a young person like you, but it is great you got a free old coin. Your mother must be interested aso to tell friends about your hobby.Have fun! Jim

    I have books that have only what I could find in change and people gave me. I like the thrill of the hunt. Its not always about the best coin you can buy. How many of your buddies has a coin that old?

    None of my buddies have a coin this old but I have made lots of them interested in coin collecting, coin roll hunting, metal detecting and other fun stuff

    That coin has a lot more stories to tell than most. Great gift no matter how old you are. Congradulations.
