Was excited to hear a very nice coin signal in an old mining site where very little to no modern trash lurks about. After admiring the signal for a bit, I dug it and the first part that I could read said "2 Cent", but as soon as I turned it over I realized it was not a U.S. Coin, no surprise there as we find lots of mid and early 19th century foreign coins in the California gold camps. This one is a Belgium 2 Cent coin. The date is tough to read, looks like 1835 or 1838. I still have never dug a U.S. 2 cent piece or a 20 cent piece or a 1/2 cent.
Also found a Chinese coin nearby. A beautiful site so I added a few more pics.
