I found a whole slew of those. However, you also see breakers like that 
at yard sales and typically their contacting screws are rusted shut. The 
material quality wasn't all that great. That also was the case for all 
the breakers I tore out of this panel. I had to snip the wires as there 
was no way to loosen those screws one more time.
