Great job on your new oldest coin. Always feels great. Next thing you know you'll have a 1700s coin. Dig enough holes in the right places it will happen

Nice haul!

It looks like some kind of decoder ring. Maybe there is more treasure and adventure in your future.

Congratulations! I found my oldest coin(1868 shield nickel) at a heavily pounded park last week, just goes to show there is always at least one little spot that has been missed.
