Just found this in a roll of halves. Wish it were in better shape but the date is readable. 1861 British Penny. Hope the picture comes thru.

silverfinder said:I just love those curious, old, or otherwise odd finds that occur so mysteriously in boxes of halves. Just this Tuesday, I pulled out a 1927 English penny from a roll in one of the boxes I ordered. And a few weeks ago, I got a French ten centime piece with Napoleon III's effigy on the obverse. It's nearly worn smooth, but it dates from circa 1855-56. Neither coin has any real value, but I'm keeping them. Every box is an adventure.
