This is my oldest coin so far.... 1826 English penny, George IV.
I had trouble getting it out of its grave, in hard pack about 10 down and unfortunately hit it with my digger :awful:
Its in pretty poor shape, but then again, its nearly 200 years old..... just lucky I could make out the date.

Doh! I hate damaging nice old coins - I've done the same.

Great find. Good condition considering its age. At least the date is nice and clear.
 
Nice find Ozzie
