Nice Silver coin

[shane41]

Went to a old school yard and dug up this Silver 1969 Fiji 20 cent coin. They minted about 2 million of these.. As of 2006 I believe they no longer use the Queens head on any of the Fiji coins or paper money.. Never thought I would find a coin like this in a grade school playground...Not the first time I dug up a foreign coin in a school grounds.. Also got a nice 1950 Wheat penny plus over $7.00 in clad coins .. Ended up to be a good hunting day.. Hope you enjoy the pics... Shane

Interesting coin, but it's of a copper-nickel composition.
