I worked over the front yard of an old ranch house that had been razed in the 60's. Three savers were put in the bag.

A Zee Toys Ranger (No. 1114) cap gun, a ball point pen showing the old exchange name phone number (example: MD 9-999) in the advertisement, and a UK 1921 George V bronze penny (the size of our 50 cent piece but half of the width.)

How is it that I work hard to find old US coins and up pops a seasoned British coin?? Maybe someone from the royal island could give an opinion as to this coin being anything special other than for the date?

I dug one of those (a 1919) in New Mexico - kinda surprised me - but I've heard of a few people digging ancient Roman coins in the U.S.
so just about anything is possible I guess !
 
Nothing that special I'm afriad (in terms of value/rarity). But its a nearly 100 years old & its not your normal find!
 
given the big lots of Roman coins one can buy on ebay fairly cheaply...Im surprised there aren't more Roman coins turning up....
