    New finds from logging camp

    Had limited time to hunt the logging camp site but found some things including a nice 1873 half dime. My buddy dug up about 10 lbs. of old iron parts all of which were broken.

    That is an awesome half dime! As I mentioned before, there wasn't allot of money circulating about the camps, so coins are usually rare. You did well. Love diggin in the old camps!
