[QUOTE="Tally, post: 332765, member: 10147"] Hi Silver, back of coin is in terrible condition can't make out anything :( Good call Sandta, from what I can see on front of coin which is most of it, found some pics of exact same coin on internet search. It is a Queen Victorian Penny. Three types were made first was young queen victoria, then queen victoria with bun head (thats the one I have, 1860-1874) then the third one made was old queen victoria. Rapt to find something so old, getting addicted to my new hobby already. Have read that you can soak bronze coins in olive oil. Has anyone tried this? Would like to be able to see back of coin if possible [/QUOTE]
