Pennsylvania woman digging in garden finds 1793 penny
BURNHAM, Pa. (AP) - A penny saved is a penny earned, but a 1793 penny found in a Pennsylvania woman’s garden is probably worth a lot more. Cheryl Corbin first thought she had picked up a quarter while planting flowers in June. Then she saw the date and thought it was a bicentennial coin. At work the next day, Corbin said she had the office in an uproar.
