What's the oldest coin you've come across?

Usually when I get change if something looks old I'll check the date.  Just pulled a 1936 Quarter out of a vending machine.  Wonder how many hands that quarter has been in over those 86 years.

And it’s silver. When I delivered newspapers back in 1963-1968. I got some really old silver coins…..most were silver. A handful of silver coins sounds really nice.
Oldest was probably a 1915 Buffalo Head nickel.
