He said: "My dad's a farmer and he said a mole had been digging holes and dug up a very old coin.
"We can just about make out that it dates back to 1919.
"My dad plans to keep it but we'd love to speak to a local historian to try and find out a bit more - and perhaps find out what it's worth though I don't think it's a million.
"We're not too keen to publicise the exact location but it's quite unusual as no-one really walks through there and it definitely didn't drop out of my dad's pocket.
"My 92-year-old aunt still lives at the location so we don't want to encourage people to come along and start searching the area but we'd love to find out more."
