Very nice Hondo, Glad we could inspire you.

I have had this coin for a few years, but didn't know how you clean it properly, but decided to have a go last weekend. It's about 16mm.

No mate, not many of these things buried in Australia.
It was sent to me by one of my trading friends.

They won't be all that interesting as most were just new dates or mintmarks of types of US, Mexican and Belize coins that I already had. I didn't see any coins at all in Honduras, where the lowest value bill has a value of about 5 US cents. I got more ship casino tokens and elongates than anything else

That's awesome that you got it in a trade.

Also, very nice examples, Hondo Boguss, and NumisRob!
