Thanks much for allowing an uneducated old man to post. I have never been a collector, only an accumulator. I have a small hoard of mostly US silver. I have spent the last couple days reading back postings and didn't see anything like the coin in question. Back in the 70's my ex was a chief teller for a California Bank of America. Every day when she had to close out she bought the silver and brought it home. A few hundred coins I'm sure I will have questions on. The silver coins she brought home are what got me into metal detecting and that is what this post is about, a metal detector find from just the other day. I'm fairly certain this coin is in such poor condition it won't have much if any value. I could go on & on about all the I think's about this coin but I would rather hear what you think. Could this be some kind of an error or junk? Showing with a normal 1983 D. I'm working on my photography, please be gentle. Thanks again!
