Too bad it's not U.S. or silver...

Still a neat find, not everyday something this old falls out of a roll.

Nice old find regardless it being foreign, 151 years of history. Sometime you wonder, " if only this coin could talk", where has it been, who else may have touched it, amazing find.
 

Exact diameter of a U.S. half dollar. When a seller can't get 50 cents for the coin, they roll them up with their halves. Still a neat find.
Yes, I have found several of these in half dollar MWRs, although not nearly as old as Avago’s.
 

Great find. Given its age, history and condition, I would actually take that over a silver half.
 

Nice save Avago!!!
 

Also known as a "vulgar penny" as to the position of the trident.
 

I've found a bunch of them over the years but this one is certainly the oldest! I'll take it for 50 cents!
 

Great find man, definitely jealous! Would take that over "modern" silver any day.
 

That's just crazy. Cool find looks Ancient lol
 

I consider that a very nice find! :occasion14:
