First Large Cent - First 2 Cent Piece and First

[Trezurehunter]

Silver of 07. Was on vacation this week and got out a few times. Went to a house in town where I live and after the first hour had nothing but clad. I stayed a while longer and was glad I did. When I got the next hit, I bent down and dug my first Large Cent !! It was an 1855 Slanted 5's with full date and very readable Liberty on the head. My very next hit was 2 feet away, and was the 1864 2 Cent Piece with full Motto (Large) in equally as good of shape. Talk about excitement !!. I then went to another house and pulled my first silvers for 2007. The 1942 Washington came first, then the 1954 Rosie. Not a bad day except for the temps, it was 35 here in Illinois. Thats o.k. cause with coins like that coming out of the ground, it was worth every cold minute I was out there. Hope the pics come out.
