<p>[QUOTE="Greg Sebring, post: 339920, member: 12186"]I saw an earlier thread where a forum member found a nice 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar in the duct work of his home. I too have a similar story. While cleaning out my Grandmother's cold air return in her home about 40 years ago I found an English copper coin about the size of an American quarter. On the face around the rim was stamped , "Georgius II REX" with a bust view of the King looking left in the center. The reverse side had "Britannia" stamped around the rim with a seated figure in the center holding a staff of some type. The date below the figure was "1749" . The coin has a <b>lot</b> of wear and obviously changed hands many times. What denomination might this be? </p><p><br /></p><p>Reading the other thread makes me wonder just how many folks dropped coins and had them roll into a hot or cold air register.
