It Was Fate
This teenager looked at the coin that he was holding in his hand. Somehow, he could not help but think that there was more to this than meets the eye. He would be a fool if this was not true. In the end, he found out that this object was more valuable than he ever thought possible! Back then, Don Lutes Jr. had no clue that it was going to take seven decades before people saw what he did.
His Discovery
Don Lutes Jr. was a 16-year-old student at Pittsfield High School. He had been in line at the cafeteria when he noticed something about the pennies that made up his lunch money. There was a strange-looking coin in there! He trusted his gut and held onto it. Excited, he even showed it to his classmates, teachers, and parents. Sadly, they did not seem to care much about it. He eventually got used to the feeling of dismissal.
