Here ya go mate. Including your military collar disc. Congrats, those were a couple good finds. Want to trade for 16 spoons?

Great find Lee. I see that it sold for some good USD's. Seeing that it is a foreign coin, who ever lost it probably had no idea of the value.
Kudos to you for checking this one out, makes me want to check out my foreign coins.
