There once was a young farmer called Lee, Who was digging up coins round a tree. He was sure they were golden And were awfully olden: They were dated a thousand BC… BC : Before Christ

It likely was fake as the 'oldest' is dated 700 BC. If not, it's worth lots of money.

:) But how did they know it would be a thousand years before Christ would be born when making the coin? Clever and a great entry for Deb's contest. I think she'll love this one! Wishing you success. Love, Carolyn
