<p>[QUOTE="Twiggs, post: 241854, member: 8076"]found a 1940 wheatie at work today..it is bizarre to say the least. You will see lots of different color shades and they are in the copper metal itself and not surface. I examined it under different lighting, magified, wet etc etc. Under magnifier, you can actually see the different swirls/marks of color and its both sides of the coin. There are some areas that remind of rock hunting when I was a kid..lol</p><p><br /></p><p>I know, your going to tell me its old, worn, dirty but you defintely have to see it.
