<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheNickelGuy, post: 8338092, member: 20201&quot;]I collected a little bit as a youngster but my serious collecting started when I got a job as a door to door milkman.</p><p><br /></p><p>Got a lot of unusual money. At the time some were amazing finds. But by my standards today they were mostly common collectible coins. My favorite find was a MS 1938 Jefferson.</p><p>I knew it was a good one when I saw it without a magnifying glass and just using a flashlight looking into the change in an empty milk bottle.</p><p>They got 2 half gallons of regular milk which cost $2.30 total at the time.</p><p>Two ones, a quarter and that nickel.</p><p>I still have it from 39 years ago. I wrote &quot;Jackson&quot; on the 2x2 because that was the customers name. Should I dig it out? . . . . . yeah</p><p><br /></p><p>pause</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, I found it. It looks like I moved it over to this holder at some point. It isn&#039;t my best 38 but one of my favorites.</p><p>Took some poor pictures here tonight.</p><p>I had a note on it. Poss LG/SD which I think at the time, I didn&#039;t know much about doubled dies.</p><p>I see split serifs. Doesn&#039;t make much difference to me but I&#039;ll go look it up now.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1478367[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1478368[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1478369[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1478370[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
