Found my oldest coin as of yet...and some other goodies!

Went with my cousin to do a little digging at the county's poor house that was built in 1897. It has been converted into apartments now.
My second target of the day yielded an 1861 Swedish 5 Ore! I had clue what this coin was when I dug it (only 2-3 inches deep).

Thanks for looking and happy hunting!

You just never know what it is till you dig it . Never stops amazing me what we find in the ground and when its so odd and out of place it makes me wonder what the story behind it is
