Picture 1/16: Illinois Coin

January 16
(picture 16 of 365)

The lovely Mrs. Honnold and I dropped by a flea market in Mt. Zion today.

And I picked this up for 2 bucks:


Pretty sure that it's really from 1968 and not a repro.

I had a good chat with the vendor (who we've dealt with before).  He said his dad came across a tube of about 2 dozen of these coins at a sale some time back.  And they appeared to be legit.

I'll take his word for it cause I doubt I'll find another one for $2.

Out for now......

Matt
