 Was going through a bag that used to belong to my grandfather and found this bad boy in a bag of coins. 1891 silver dollar. Pretty cool. https://image.nostr.build/accc5d3bcc6ba3e65f6542fd7bc188f0f0c8b46f15859109a1044cd618ea0713.jpg  
 Old coins are sweet. I have a nice little collection I’ve scraped together from traveling and from my grandparents and even some old silver coinage I’ve scrounged from coinstar reject trays over the years. 
 They are sweet. It’s crazy how heavy and ornate they used to be. 
 Yeah and the clang of silver on a counter top, love that shit. Clad coinage is such a fiat garbage. 
 Truly is.
