Cool find, I was a little disappointed it wasn't silver, what is wrong with those frogs! Hey 1861 is way cool, I'd be loving that coin.

I found two of those on two adjacent lots. One I couldn't read the date and the other was an 1864. I found out later that there was a guy that lived there that was in WWII. I am not sure if he brought those back. I also found a silver French coin.
