<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eskychess, post: 147272, member: 4692&quot;]ajm229 That is awesome sweet that you found a 14 D!!! I wonder if it&#039;s the one that guy in New York put into circulation?? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Recently the guy at the coin shop told me a guy found a 14 D on the floor in the lunch room at the hospital. He initially told the coin guy it was a 13 D - so the coin guy didn&#039;t really care. When he saw it in person he was much more surprised! However, he said it had some corrosion on it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> making it only worth $100 or so. Still - even though I hate corroded coins - a corroded 14 D is better than NO 14 D right!</p><p><br /></p><p>I came into a large pile of cleaned Indian Head cents. I was thinking of putting them into circulation as they must be damn near worthless. Whoever polished them made NO SECRETS about it and my dad ended up paying $34 for them. Thank god there was an 1891 in AU condition in there that wasn&#039;t cleaned to salvage the deal. The coin guy I was telling you about puts old coins into circulation just to get a rise out of some people... Of course, nothing worth too much.... but one story goes.... he spent a 1925 Buffalo Nickel at a McDonalds.... The cashier looked at it, took it... as he was eating his food he watched, and the next guy in line seemed to have got the Nickel ... He stared at it, gawked at it, had a little smile on his face and then plugged it into the donation aquirium filled with coins and WATER!!! lol ... I bet someone could write a column off of stuff like that. I think I&#039;ll start putting those Indian Heads into circulation and keep notes while I do it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nice Find ajm!!</p><p><br /></p><p>Esky[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
