These are my finds from my first farmers field hunt of the year, toasted coppers are early 18th century Swedish coins and one is Russian Denga from 1731. Silver coin in the middle is Finnish 25 penniä 1867.

Also found interesting looking piece of bronze, looks like a broken part of a old buckle.

Here is the keydate Finnish 25 penniä silver coin from 1867:



This coin is in the Finnish top 60 most rarest circulated coins list. This coin has a mintage of 383.000 pieces and in the 19th century, a 25 penniä was considered to be quite alot of money, so these coins are not lost very often and finding a keydate coin is a very rare event. Even in this not so good condition, this coin's value is quite nice.

This coin should considered to be a banner find, as this means the same to us Finnish detectorist, than finding a 1916 d silver dime in America.
:hello2:

Don't know if you will make the banner with the 1867 key date 25 pennia or not, but it is a very nice and rare find.
Congratulations Digger82 on some very nice keepers. Gold Nuggets :hello:

Wondering that myself? 'report' the post with the little "exclamation" sign in the lower left hand corner and write "banner" in the note? ???

EDIT: There is a "nominate banner" rectangle in the upper right hand corner of each post. I SWEAR it wasn't there before? Weird.
