99 yr old BONUS in my coin tumbler!!!

[Goes4ever]

wow, what a cool lil surprise.....I was tumbling some clad tonite and when I spread my tumbled coins out to dry I found this little dinky 1912 coin. I assume I thought it was a clad dime when I originally found it. Crazy thing is, I have NO idea when or where I dug it?

still a neat thing to discover in the tumbler. Modern penny is for size reference. Now anyone know what it is?

Nice surprise Terry!! Googling the "Endracht maakt macht" showed this to be a Belgium coin, translated it means "Unity makes strength".

Congrats!!

Cool Coin! Wish I had time to detect like you guy's. I still love looking at all your finds. Too wrapped up in career, friends, school, and video games.

Cool coin
first 1 centime I've seen,
I believe it is the smallest denomination coin minted

@steelheadwill
check the picture in the link. I think that the old dutch 10 cent (dubbeltje) was one of the smallest.
