Oldest Coin from CRH?

[DrDetector]

Just out of curiosity, and because I was just notified of this section of TreasureNet, but what is the oldest coin found while CRH? Personally I've got 2 Barber Halves (1906O and 1907) and 2 V Nickels (1902 and 1912D). Also have found 3 IHCs, but none with discernible dates on them. I'm sure my personal records can be topped, but what are all your personal oldest coins?

Years ago, I got an 1879 IHP. Can't find the darned thing either. It was almost perfect. :P

My oldest is an 1898 Indian Head 1¢. I found it in 1996 and eleven years later I still haven't topped it, though I came close with an 1899 Liberty 5¢ in 2005.

The all-time record has to go to Coin World's Bill O'Rourke who found an authentic "widow's mite" in a roll of dimes. They date back to the time of Jesus!

Mine is a 1884 IHP found in my second box of pennies about 3 weeks ago.

Its no jesus coin, but I like it.

My wife found a 1899 penny at Walgreens. She also found a 1906 D barber half. She found the oldest and the nicest walker I got so far too. She must be good luck.

From CRH I found a 1892 Columbian Commemorative half dollar.

The oldest coin that I have found is a 1886-O Morgan, found when asking tellers for big IKE dollars.
