Two old coins (strange, I know)

[mossyhennebry]

Ok, this is a bit of a strange one.

Getting married in December, and as part of our ceremony we will be exchanging coins as a token of all we own. Now, we could do any random coins, but it would be nice to have them mean something. So, i'm on the lookout for two coins - one dated 1982 and one dated 1986, our years of birth.

Preferably not copper pennies, the bigger the coin the better. The old punt coin would be ideal as its big and silver. Have only one here but its 1990. Not sure if they date back to 1982??

the punt coin only came out in 1990, it used to be a green note before that

Do they HAVE to be Irish coins ??

[mossyhennebry]

That must be why I have that '90 one here.

Has to be a coin, maybe those old chunky 50p coins?

Just had a look there, the chunky 50p would come in those years as i have three there from 70, 78, and 82.

I know its not relavent but i just found a 1943 6p, a 1945 3p, and the best i thought was a 1903 penny.

I might have more somewhere i check tomorrow
