I guess thats why they say you never know what you are going to find. Found a 1853 French Coin (dix centimes) and a 1943 New Zealand One Penny. The town I found the coins in was a mining town in the 1850's so I am assuming one of the miners came over from France and the New Zealand coin was likely from someone stationed during war times.

Happy Hunting!!
