Default Quick Hunt

Went out to the school yard / civil war site this evening for about an hour. (2) marbles, 55 cents in clad, 1956 wheatie, and an uncirculated philadelphia mint set filler coin (thought i had something with that one). Sorry about no pic....couldn't get a good close up.

Nice finds, filler coin is a very interesting find. Someone broke up a set.

Congrats on the hunt! A wheat is always good. Now a question. What is a filler coin? Thanks, Beale.

The that I can figure is it's just an extra coin in an uncirculated coin mint set
