Wait...that's not a penny!?

Those of you participating in this hobby already can attest to this: once you start digging up coins, you ALWAYS inspect the spare change you're given from a store, bank, restaurant, etc.

Today, my short park hunt rendered me 13 coins...all clad. My stop for a breakfast sandwich on the way into work, netted me a 1983 one cent coin from Zambia.



Ironic.

Don't spend it all in one place. Rolls of coins are great places to find stuff we don't collect.

Definitely different from our usual finds.

I find those foreign coins and first hope it's some ancient rare valuable coin lol

Cool find!

I don't know, Aardvarks are rare, right?

 

[keith.parrish]

You are right, I check every coin that comes into my hand. Its just natural as a coin collector or metal detecting hobbyist. Nice pocket change find.

Nice unusual specimen. A few weeks ago a "penny" in my change was a 1966 Un Centesimo from the Republica de Panama.

Very interesting African coin that you don't see too often here in the USA. So how much does a Zimbabwe? Kenya tell me? Sub

Only 99 more ngwees and you'll have a kwacha. And 1,000 kwachas equal $0.08.
