Well today I had to take advantage of the nice sunny weather and went down the street to see a neighbor. His house was build in the latter half of the 1700's and is getting a remodel, which means part of his front yard has been torn up and leveled. I've hit the yard several times in the last couple of months so the pickins were slim today. In the past I've manages to pull out 4 large early coppers, an 1876 Half and a badly mauled Georgie.I did manage to pull out a 1809 Half-Cent however, not in the greatest shape, but my first of that variety. As per our agreement, he got to keep it, but I was able to clean it a bit and document. The tag has me curious. Anyone see these? It reminds me of a luggage tag, but would appreciate any info on it, or date. Thanks for looking!
