Dug this coin - heavy, not precious metal as it's green corroding slightly. It has the man's head on both sides and says Henry IV . A little larger than a quarter. Any ideas ? Thanks, steve in so az

Tony - Man, there goes our Euro trip ! Thanks for tracking it down. Anything old is rarely found here in so AZ. However, last year a guy dug a Reale in a school playground here in my city. Steve
