Again, very slim but I managed my keeper for the day. This coin had a very nice green patina but since the detail was so stong I decided to clean it. I'm still not sure about my choice but after a few weeks in olive oil to remove the last bit of green I think it will look pretty good. These must have had a silver content because it's coming through on the date side. All in all it wasn't a bad day to dig. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">

I have had one of those in my coin collection for years and have no idea where I got it. It would have been more fun if I had dug mine, but I'm happy to have mine just the same. Congratulations.

Hi C.C.
Its a Danish coin. The text is "1 skilling Danske KM" KM stands for "koppar mynt" which means kopparcoin Skilling was the denomination back in those days.
Very nice find. Congrats

Thanks Karl, It was a first for me and certainly is different. I do know of at least one other turning up here. HH!
