As me and my girlfriend was driving to her mothers new place I decided to bring the detector to hunt her backyard. The house was built around year 1900 and the town has history from way back to the middle ages. I took a short stroll with my AT-pro in the hot sun. With sweat on my forehead and a smile on my face I dug up these old coins.

My oldest 25 öre coin from Oscar II, 1881.
A 1/4 skilling from 1803. Visible date on these coins are RARE to be dug as they are usually toast beyond recognition.
And a cool bronze coin from 1896, 5 öre.

I also found a spare key to the house :) mynt9.jpg kvartsskilling2.jpg
