Yep and it's a first. I had to look it up. It's from Zimbabwe, lol.
I got out Wednesday to satisfy a "Jones" from not getting out for a week. I really can't complain since we really have had a mild winter.
It was a 7 hour hunt that resulted in 103 coins, a 1945 Mercury Dime, 20 wheat pennies and my second BSA Cub Scout Bobcat Pin.

Fooled me to ATW. I was all set to congratulate you on a U.S. 20 Cent Piece. So I guess I can still congratulate you on the Zimbabwe 20 Center, although it just wasn't as exciting !

I sure wish it was a 20Β’ American. I was rooting for you until I read. RATS.

A lot of digging there. Nice
