    Ok, so it's not too big of a deal to most I'm sure, but I was waaaay excited to find it.

    I was going through my wheaties that I have in a jar and I came across a 1911 S! Whoo hoooo! lol Now granted it's in poor condition, but still exciting for me!

    thanks! it was actually from a batch of coins a friend gave me, so I didn't even pay face value either! haha how fun!

    I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with it, but I'll figure something out I suppose. It's probably in the 3-4 range, Lincoln has a VERY slight jaw line still, te date is actually pretty strong, the left wheat ear is half worn, the right wheat ear is completely worn, the rim is strong but warped a little, not sure how? but overall I'm still happy with it!
