<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Daniel Haley, post: 24902488, member: 152680&quot;]I have a 20 Krueger silver coin minted in Austria in 1775 that was allegedly given to a boatman as a tip or payment after helping Washington’s and his men across the deleware the night they surprised the hessians. This boatman apparently helped construct one ore more of the large chains that spanned across the river, such as the one on display at West Point. This coin was passed on as a family heirloom and then sold to me by the widow of the last owner. The widow lived in Trenton, nj within viewing distance of where Washington crossed. I don’t have any documentation of this, but I didn’t know the story until after I bought the coin and noticed the return address. I then inquired to the seller any history about the coin. And she told me the story. Hope this helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
