Good morning, I had quite the hunt yesterday afternoon! The first find of the day was the 1797 large cent, followed by the 1866 Indian head penny, at which point I was already thrilled. Finding the standing Liberty quarter on my way out was the icing on the cake!

The large cent is pitted, but the date is clearly visible, and the detail is good overall. I’m definitely going back to this spot!

Pretty thrilling to dig up a large cent and see the 17 instead of the 18. And then a semi-key 1866 IH and an SLQ to boot. Great day! :occasion14:

I had completely forgotten that the 1866 was a better date Indian head, thanks for the reminder!
