Id be chuffed to bits with an 1846 penny. I found my first Queen Victoria
coin on Sunday. Its strange because I found coins from 1897 (the vic), right
through to the 1930's then 60's then 1980's all in a small patch of
woodland, no larger than a big garden. 8 pre-dec coins total plus 4 modern.
Also got the end of a dart (the bomb?), a badge "AU" either torn from the
bonnet of an Austin or an Audi, a live shotgun round and the obligatory egg
custard foil. An excellent couple of hours if i do say so myself, makes up
for those times when ive come away swearing not to search again.
