  Please excuse my ignorance but I am curious how you've managed to date it?  I can't see any dates in the pics. 

  My oldest coin is pretty messed up but it is still my favorite hands down.  It is too bad that our hobby most often presents us with these very valuable pieces that are damaged to the point of such diminished value.  The coin that I speak of is an 1858 US half dime that is so worn and scarred that I have estimated it's value has been diminished more than $5000 US dollars.  Essentially, I have seen an example of the same coin once being sold for roughly $20,000 US while mine is said to be worth less than ten bucks. Cry

  Very nice piece there sir.  I would be proud to have it in my collection of finds.

G Day Tri, If you can make out any markers on it you can get an idea because back then Kings and Queens did'nt
live to long, and because they loved them selves so much they were always getting new coins stamped,

Thanx RR, I guess that s make sense.  I have been getting inspiration from the site's pics over the last hour or so and will make a run out to that park that has been treating me well lately.  Maybe I will find a real diamond this time?  I feeling pretty lucky!!

Hi AU and Ditty
AU is correct, dont ask me how, but by the markings that are visable on it one of the dateabases were able to date it within 12 hours of me posting it, and supplied me with a picture of another one near mint condition.
Beleave it or not that knackered coin is worth about ?90.00, so they must be quite rare.

All the best
