Found a 2 cent piece and a half dime

[DigIron2]

I found these last Wednesday . I wanted to post them but was having problems with my camera , its a long story but finally got it straight. I found the 2 cent and half dime not to awfully far from each other. Very possible they came out of the same pocket? This is the first 2 center I have found. I am glad it came up decent because the majority of coppers I dig are usually toasted. It is a 1864, I was hoping for that small motto but it appears to be the large. Also got a couple flat buttons, one cuff ball button, a old hatchet head and some other odds and ends. Hope everyone has a good weekend. HH

That's a pretty half dime, double so for a dug one.

Congrats on the 7 cents. That's an excellent way to accumulate that amount of money. Seems like 80% of the two centers that surface are 1864s. Other dates are harder to come by.

Those coins are awesome. I bought both of those coins recently at a coin shop, wish I could have found them in the ground. Great job.
