Didnt know it's worth until he took it out of my hand

coin collectors like there coins don't they

Their were only 5 struck for a general long ago. The general gave them out as gifts.

His family ended up with one.

Hey if that coin let's me go deep sea fishing so be it. Hahaha

legacy succession, he's the accidental coin collector👌

My first cousin is his cousin. We all grew up together. His dad owned a gas station/ repair store

Out in the boonies

but it was inherited right?

Yes

I dont know the linage

It was stolen at one time. With a bunch of other coins. He knew who did it. Couple years later he knew the guy was a drug addicts and asked if he had any coins he would like to sell. He said yes. Dan rummaged through them and offered him 50 bucks for it back

That's the only story line I know

I collected coins as a kid, w always were on the lookout for that (1) coin.😂

Poof

I'm not sure I would buy that stolen property story, understanding about stolen property and the provenance ease of proof et al.

hi @Ron Ward

Are you familiar with the phrase "possession is nine tenths of the law"?

It does not mean what most people think it does.

I know they had it in their possession before it was stolen from them. I know that much

It is cool that you were able to hold it...

In a plastic case none the less

Of course

Now I get to go fishing on it. Much more fun

wear reduces value, materially

In the Gulf stream

benefits all around👍

I would much rather be deep sea fishing than holding a nickel in my hand

turn that coin into a money maker ...can't take it with you.😇

POTUS is speaking on Dorian

160 mph winds

He's at FEMA HQ in D.C.

They dont hold cat 5 long

5 now, looks like they expect it to hit at a 4 after it turns to hit land

afternoon patriot warriors
