Final box of 2016 produces oldest coin I've found crh

[Zomotion]

This coin is soooooooo worn.... Makes me wonder how it got this way, maybe just circulation...

Anyways with a little help from google images I figured out its a One Penny. The obverse is of Young Victoria and you can just make out a partial date on the reverse 186_

It was a good half dollar box overal with a '64, '65, '66 & '68. Anyone else here find anything this old in a box of coin? HH!
Sorry for the sideways pics...

Personally, I would have just thought it was a plug of some type and pitched it! You are good!

The 1869 20 francs gold coin that I found in a mwr of nickels is my oldest. You can see it in an earlier post.

Nice way to end 2016, after getting 5 skunks earlier this week I was able to end 2016 on a good note with my two boxes today as well. Hope 2017 is an even better year for us!

Great eyes! I would never have seen it. I still don't, but then again, I have old eyes :>)
