Here is the oldest and one of the first coins in my collection. It's an 1827 cent or penny. I went to a Civil War/Revolutionary War antique shop 4-5 years ago which is when I really started getting interested in coins and historic items. It came with a Civil War bullet as well and I paid about $28.00 for both of them so it comes out to $14.00 a piece. Technically I could count this as VF because all of the letters in LIBERTY are showing (even though the picture doesn't show it). Without that, though, I would call it a Good-Almost Good meaning it is worth about $10.00-$20.00.
