2000 year old coin found in MA

I found a coin struck between 1250 and 1258 in Constantinople in my little west coast American town. The town didn't exsist before 1924. People put thiings in pockets and pockets puke the items right back out.
 
Interesting story, I always wonder how objects get to their final resing place.. Makes you think who's hands that coin passed through and it's journey to where it was found all these years later..

I don't buy the part about the possibility of a seagull though...

:wow:
 
I'm not too sure about the Phoenicians either. Does anyone know of any signs that the Phoenicians ever visited the east coast?

Hmmm, after a little googling, I guess there is some evidence of them visiting the Americas. Still, I suspect it jumped out of a pocket in more modern times.
