The farmer cut the hay on the field that gave me all the LCs this spring so back I went . Running low and slow in TTF I dug every non ferrous signals I could hear . Found some nice relics including a horse bridal rosette and a 1912 NYS dog tag . Only two coins showed up , i dug my nicest IHP and a great surprise bucket list coin. I got a solid 12-21 on my ETrac , which is a old style pull tab signal on the ETrac. What popped out of the ground was something I never expected to find . My first ever Flying Eagle Cent in amazing shape . The area that I dug it was a hedgerow until about 3 yrs ago when it got cleaned out to make the field bigger . So it has never seen fertilizer or a plow . It's got a great patina on it but the reverse is a little roached .

Congratulations on the IH and flying eagle,that one is still on my list.The unidentified piece between the 2 buckles looks like the piece on the carburetor(tractor) where the throttle linkage hooks up.

I was wondering what that was . It felt real heavy , like it was made of lead . I found 5 of them in the last 2 days in that field

Congrats on a flying eagle and an indian. I have yet to find a flying eagle and no indians yet this year which is strange.
