My old man does a lot of metal detecting, he has thousands of old coins from the last 15 years or so of doing all different sites around queensland.
There are some particular coins that are worth a bit, generally a certain type of coin from a certain year. Not sure on the details, I'll talk to him when I get home this afternoon.

Out of curiosity, what is it about the 1930 penny that is so special? And what are they worth?

There is a place here in Canberra you might be interested in contacting. They go by the name Edlins. I think they have a website so maybe you might try searching on google
