Old Pennies

While doing some gardening today, I found an old coffee can full of pennies. 
 
 
It was out in the backyard.
 
 
One of the kiddo's long lost and forgotten treasure...
 
 
...finally found.
 
 
Poor old copper Lincolns, most aren't worth very much.
 
 
 
Treasure lost but then again...
 
 
found.

    Love the color and texture of old pennies. Have picked up many "lucky pennies" along the way. New follower... nice to meet you, Lisa!

    What a great find! Pennies and nickels are obsolete here in New Zealand.

    Lovely! Please keep it, one day it will be worth a fortune. In Canada we are phasing out our penny, cost more to produce it than it is worth.

    Oh I love these rusty coin photos what a great find. I remember burying something in a tin when I was kid have no idea what it was or where in the yard. Now someone else owns it. I imagine they found something very cool like this:) Awesome. B
