<p>[QUOTE=&quot;walterallen, post: 110619, member: 4068&quot;]Back when I was 14 I lived in upstate NY. My mother had a garden and had just turned dirt over the bean row she was planting when I saw this dark green thing get covered. Well digging it up got me in trouble but it turned out to be an 1864 Indian Head penny. Outside the green color of it, it was in great shape, hardly any scratches and hardly any wear. This was in 1975 and being from a low income family I thought I had found a million dollars. When I took the coin to an antique shop to inquire about it, the man there say he could sell me all I wanted for two dollars a piece. So I did the only thing I could think of and gave it to a friend of the family who collected coins. </p><p>I constantly think about that coin today. Today I&#039;m over fourty and an avid coin collector, but I have yet to &quot;find&quot; any treasures such as that coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck to you. You never can tell.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
