I was amazed once again what you can find when there's nothing else of worth in the ground. Just found a few beaver tail tabs and this 1948 1 Franc coin. I dinged up the rim (very soft metal), but still a keeper.

Not from homeland France, though- as you can see, it says "REUNION" on it.

Réunion is out in the Indian Ocean, past Madagascar.

That coin was sure a long way from home!
