<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bugo, post: 2032325, member: 53226&quot;]There is a small convenience store in the apartment complex I used to live in. I got to know the owner while I lived there, and he stuck back any coin larger than a quarter that he received for me. I got lucky and got a 40% Kennedy (1968) one day and I got an Ike but it was mostly post-1970 halves that he stuck back for me. Today I was visiting my friend who still lives in that complex and walked to the store to buy a Coke. The owner wasn&#039;t there, instead a woman was working there. I heard her talking to another lady behind the counter and it was obvious her English wasn&#039;t very good. She rang up my Coke and I asked her if she had any &quot;big coins&quot; and she said &quot;yes&quot;. I thought she just didn&#039;t understand me at first. I was thinking maybe she had a clad Kennedy or possibly an Ike if I was lucky. She pulled out a large coin and my heart started racing. I thought it was an Ike (which would have still made me happy) but my jaw hit the floor when I saw that it was an 1884-O Morgan! I said &quot;I want it!&quot; and gave her 4 quarters for it. It is obviously nowhere near AU condition but has a tad bit of yellowish toning. This beats any of the finds I made at my old job at the convenience store by a long shot.&nbsp; I&#039;m still in shock but I&#039;m buzzing. I&#039;m guessing it&#039;s VF or XF, what do you think? Is it worth from $30-$40? This was the find of a lifetime. It&#039;s strange that I got this one after I quit my job at the store.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u126/bugo348/IMG_3910_zps317c8420.jpg?t=1417745921" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u126/bugo348/IMG_3916_zpsa59df177.jpg?t=1417832205" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
