Not a find, but definitely an old coin storage tin. My grandma kept old and foreign coins in this tin. She gave it to me when I was little. She died in 1966.
I also got a newer Prince Albert can with coins in it. Tobacco tins must have been mouseproof and rainproof storage back then.

Nice old tin.
Was that the tobacco your grandma chewed/smoked?

Both weren't tobacco tins.
It was a tin of some sorts. Smashed it with the Lesche digger.
Out popped these.
90+ yrs in the dirt.
The other tin not impressed with really.
Different for sure. Early 1800s cellar hole.
Sunflower seeds.
Not sure. Prince Albert in my memory.
