<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mattman, post: 195205, member: 2621&quot;]Went shopping at Wal-mart last night for Valentine goodies, checked out, got my change and put it in my pocket. Got home threw it on the dresser. Noticed there was 3 nasty looking cents, took a closer look and thought I had got a wheatie. Then I thought maybe a foreign coin, kinda looked like an old Canadian cent. Turns out it&#039;s an IHC. 1896 I think. Trust me when I say the pics make it look a hell of a lot better than it does in your hand. I had to get out the mag. glass and a under a good light before I could even tell what is was. The obverse is barely there and unless the light is just right you can&#039;t make out the details and the back is basically covered in green patina. Still tho, 110 year oldcoin still in circulation, pretty cool. Beats the 1917&nbsp; I found a couple years back as my oldest circulation find and I assume it will remain that way. Oh yeah, the 1974 and 1969 don&#039;t look as good as the pics either.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mattman[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
