Older Than Old! - Metal Detecting finds my oldest coin ever & I got attacked in the process

Myself, Nibbler, Doug, and Leroy all spent the day digging at a 1700's farm and barn. This gracious farmer no longer plants so all the land was available to us for hunting. All was going well until one of the local residence didn't seem to like what I was doing and decided to jump on me, but I dusted myself off and pushed him off like the chicken he was. Good thing too, because a deep faint signal caught my ear and I pulled up the oldest coin I've ever found!

Very nice. 1720! I remember in those days, we would take a farthing and buy a jug of beer with it, and sit by the Thames as boats would ply the river under the Tower Bridge, and read poetry while small roosters would attack us.... Oh these were heady days... hehe... Great finds guys. Cant wait for the next instalment! Cheers.

A farthing is 1/4 of a penny in English sterling currency. a penny was two halfpennys (Haypenny) or four farthings.I used farthings right up until 1966 when they were phased out in my home country. A good 1720 farthing sells for $560 USD.

Here's some info I found: Fantasyland opened in 1959, and was owned and operated by Kenneth and Thelma Dick on 23 wooded acres (later expanded to 35) on the east side of the Taneytown Road south of General Meade's Headquarters and the present National Park Service Visitors Center. Noted for its beauty, tranquility and cleanliness, the storybook land provided over 100 things for the young and young at heart to see and do. Attractions included an Enchanted Forest and Santa's Village; Fort Apache, which was attacked by live Indians; Rapunsel's Castle, and a dairy barn where you could slide into a haymow. All who entered the park were greeted by a talking twenty-three foot Mother Goose.
