What is the most interesting coin you have found in your change recently?

I found a 1955 doubled die cent in my mother’s mahjong change when I was 13 years old in 1963. Little did I know that tiny little cent would launch a hobby, a career and a long life pursuit of rare die varieties from the U.S. and the world.

Now, at 71 years old, I still enjoy researching, collecting and publishing on many aspects of the hobby. And, I’ve made friends with many interesting and incredible people along the way. Collecting coins is both fun and rewarding.
