speaking of old. Oldest shown so far is from 1609
how far back can we go?
Don't forget about the "ancients" subforum.  |

Sounds like you have three ancients.
Edit: Never mind, I got it now, you were talking about the 10 cash. I had extra punctuation in my mind.

The ancients are Alexandria 2-3rd century AD and Claudius II Gothica 268-270 AD Antoninianus. I don't know from what date coins are said ``ancient`` but my 1808 sure is a nice old beauty.
