<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NOS, post: 6821063, member: 2098&quot;]Given the coin&#039;s condition, I suspect it is a metal detector find and whomever found it determined it wasn&#039;t worth much or was worth hanging onto. Most of the time when coins from the 19th Century turn up in circulation they are in poor condition and typically have a lot of wear or environmental problems.</p><p><br /></p><p>The easiest explanation for this is that they are released intentionally due to their perceived low value. However, that doesn&#039;t change the fact that they have a lot of history to them, particularly a contemporary love token like this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
