Cleaning dirty coins

It's my birth year.

Left it as is.



Now I'm bummed because I don't have a clue where I put it.

Dont loose any sleep over it. Its not really worth more then a dollar. No silver content in that year to make it worth more.

I know. Was more of sentimental purposes being the year of my birth. Figured what would be the odds of finding something like that?
