Found first proof coin in change today

Postby Rob72830 » Thu Jun 14, 2012 10:58 pm

Went to McDonald's today for lunch and picked up a SBA dollar they had in the drawer. Didn't really look at it til I got home and thats when I saw the S mintmark. I know its not worth much considering it is circulated but there is still some luster from the proof striking. As soon as I can edit a photo that is smaoll enough, I will upload a picture of it.
