History Rewritten, Balboa Discovers America

Or, at least, California discovers Balboa. Monday nite half time, and one of the discoveries was an almost totally blackened (it cleaned up okay with Tarn-X) 1962 Medio Balboa from Panama. 90% silver, same weight as our halves. I'd never seen one before, it's actually pretty cool. Image
