Went out yesterday ,in my In-laws backyard and found an 1858 flying eagle cent. This is my first "collectible" coin that I've dug. Funny thing is I've been killing myself trying to get permission to hunt other places.

This is the way it goes. My best finds were on my own property or that owned by close friends.

Getting permission to hunt today isn't easy here in the U.S.

Great coin!

Posted a coupla pics. Me an my scanner have a love /hate relationship. It loves to complicate things and I hate it. So the camera pics will have to suffice. ;)
