I have collected coins off and on since the 1960's.
Holding old coins sometimes gives one a sense of history, and causes one
to wonder through whose hands they have passed through over the years.
The "Young Indiana Jones" television series ran from 1992 to 1996,
and was subsequently released on DVD.
The series was called "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles" and
"The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones".
It was inspired by the main character from the three "Indiana Jones" films
released from 1981 to 1989 starring Harrison Ford as the 1930's adventurer.
The episodes covered the period roughly from 1908 to 1920.
The DVDs display an introductory page which features items that a young
Indiana Jones might have saved over the years, including three coins.
None of the coins display the year dates.
I thought that it would be easy to identify the three coin types,
two were instantly recognizable but the third one proved to be more difficult.
The first two coins could have been from the period of the series, 1908 to 1920.
The third coin was harder as it was from the 1820's.
It is interesting to note that he could have picked up the first coins
in circulation at the time, but the presence of the 1820's coin means
that he had a slight interest in coins.
