Today I was looking through the coins I have found and come across a 1889 penny in not bad condition(all letters and numbers readable).I may put some photos up later.

Nice one Keywikiwi. Ive found plenty of pennys but never managed to crack one pre 1900. Best is 1908.
Definately something on my want to find list.
Look forward to the pic.
