Yup. Quite the thing to collect his stuff after JW got done with him.

I just found this small, round object made of copper with Lincoln's profile on the side ... is it worth anything, you think?

Nethie, I don't think they have much copper in them anymore.

Kingmonkey, maybe that will be the premise for a DaVinci Code/American Treasure/Great Race crossover for next year.

Those steel pennies are from 1943, copper shortage during WWII. If you find a copper 1943 penny, please feel free to mail it to me.... 😊
