Never mind they all count .
You have to walk over them to find them and its as they come up.
You will get some good ones soon.Jerry.

I had some luck on real bad coins by puting them in a small container of water and freezing them.Thaw it out and then see what you can pry off with a wooden toothpick.I don't think you can make that coin any worse and you might be able to see the date.It will also take a few freezings.
