Started out the New Year right yesterday(My calender year ended on the 30th) with my first 2 Cent Piece. Found it with Lostlake in his seated coin garden(old park). I didn't think all that much of the signal, until I saw the coin and that lovely green color. I thought it was a two center, but had to wait until I cleaned it off in the drinking fountain. Lostlake took a video, maybe he will post it.
Regards,

Awesome piece, too bad its not the small letter motto variety. They are worth significantly more. I found one for $5 in an antique store once. Got it home and studied it with a magnifier and saw that it was small letter. Ha Ha, for 5 bucks in good shape.
