Just for a bit of fun,i thought we should find out our oldest Forum coin find.

But with a difference, I'll start of with a 2010 coin then someone else posts a 2009 coin find.
Next member posts a 2008 find and so on.Until we reach our oldest find without missing a consecutive date.

RULES : only one post per member per day,or else we will delete them.

So here we go with a 2010 $2 coin.

    Nice one Meggie. I saw something similar in the Coin Forum I am in (coinpeople.com) and i think the group is stuck at 1559!

    It's not all about photo's,it's about the numerical year coin countdown.

    So you could show foreign coins that you have found for example.
    Be imaginative.
