  1. About two years ago, a farmer was knocking a wall of an old house. He got a half-penny.
    In it are the figures 69.
    The coin is tarnished so it is not easy to distinguish the marking in it, On one side there is a wolf-hound. On the other side of the coin there are eight or nine letters along the outer edge. Some of the letters look like A.F.Y.
    Being such an old coin it is interesting.
