An Edinburgh couple found a rare coin that is more than 200 years old while on a trip to a beach.
Dan Buchanan, 24, and Aaron McCormack, 25, were visiting Loch Tay on Saturday afternoon when they stumbled upon the rare find. The couple were only scanning the shores for stones to skim when Dan noticed the coin.
The coin appears to be an 1820 George III Silver Half Crown, which were issued between 1816 and 1820. The head of the coin features a portrait of George III, with an inscription around the edge reading: "GEORGIUS III DEI GRATIA".
