very nice coin, but don't you wish it were a year older ?   Still, silver is silver and good to have.

Hi Krango41

Great finds there. That coin is in very good condition I cant really make out weather that knife is old or not.

Al the best

use plenty of WD-40 (penetrating fluid/oil) it'll help soften the rust to make it easier to open (may need to wait a little while for ir to soak in)  Wink

Could probably even use electrolysis to get rid of the rust (not that I'm a specialist in the matter)
