Talking about luck, last summer my wife and I were at a garage sale and some lady just bought a purse for 50 cents, as she walked away she discovered a very shiny full luster Peace Dollar in a side compartment! Since then I always check out purses at garage sales!

The oldest I ever found was the one that initially got me into coin collecting many years ago...around 1956 or 57 I found an 1864 Indian Head Penny in change, took it to a coin store and he gave me $5 for it...must have been the "L" variety and it was in really nice condition...nothing with that much of an age spread since though last year I got a 1916 Barber dime in change, in about G condition, very worn.
