Finally broke into the 1800's UPDATE

Not that big of a deal, but while detecting a corn field where a house stood a long time ago, I got a hit and found this 1860 cent. It was my first find of anything older than the 1900's. 8)
PS, I forgot to mention I use my GPS to home in on sites that I find on old maps. Works great!

"Not that big of a deal"? That's an awesome coin, I would have been doing the happy dance all over the field, but then, I don't find coins like that so.................

Good on you! It would be a big enough deal to me for a happy dance and ongoing happy tune being whistled.
