past finds- some more cool old finds including my oldest coin

[lazyaussie]

Here's some past finds the toy guns were from schools & are the best condition of the pile i"v found. the coins are a silver 1834 shilling & a 1806 penny this is the oldest coin i"v found so far & it"s going to be hard to beat both coins were found at a school just down the road i later learned the foundations of an old homestead were found wile building the school. the 1955 collingwood football club membership keyring was found at a school to & the life saving medal thing is 1962 & has a name engraved on the back this was found at my best park.
hope you enjoy the pics

I'm glad to see that you got out coin shooting.
All jokes aside. Those coins are pretty cool finds. You are going to find very many coins going back to 1805 in this country. It's even older than Melbourne!
