Hunting school yards can sure be surprising. Found this 1960 Three Pence yesterday. It's a chunky coin! ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1504451233.825746.jpg

O those silly school yards...I found a 100 yen coin, among many other foreign coins at school yards...it's like they root through mom/dads/granny's coin collection and tote them off to school for show & tell..then throw them at each other during recess..lol. Cool find, Ddf.

That's for sure! Darn kids! That's my line of thought too.
