Nice hunt! Is that a Prussian bullet? I just found my second J-hook last week. Congrats on a CW first. [emoji106]

Wow! Oldest coin yet! Looks to be an 1850's flying Eagle one cent piece.
I've only lightly brushed it... recommendations for further,safe,cleaning?

Looks like an 1858. Going back this week, hoping for more!

Nice flying eagle. Crazy in the 22 years I've detected and found thousands of civil war relics I've never found a J Hook but as goofy as it sounds I want to find one bad just to say I have.

Love the flyng eagle cent and wish I could find my first.I am not a relic hunter so would you be so kind as to explain to a dummy what a j hook is just in case I find one by blind luck.

ecmo, They were used on their knapsacks, mostly on the leather straps as a means to hold straps together....at least this is my understanding. Have a great day!
