1808 Half Cent Today

[MentalMetal314]

Dug this out of a corn field today along with a small button that looks like someone put a hole through it. I have no idea what the other item is.

I love finding this kind of stuff. Silver and gold still allude me for some reason.

Thanks for looking!

That's pretty cool. The "other item" looks like a cufflink to me.

Very cool finds

 

[MentalMetal314]

That's what I thought as well regarding the cufflink. I threw it over the What is it? Thread too.

Thanks

Yep. Definitely a cufflink. Great finds. Don't see the half cents turning up every day.

Those Draped Bust half cents are a tough find - Nice !

Neat stuff! Thanks for sharing...

Early coppers are just as cool of a find as silver and gold in my book.... Nice find!!

Nice finds! The half cent looks like it's got a lot of detail left on it.

Congrats on the Half Cent and the cuff links. There is probably a concentration in that field somewhere. I would follow the iron hits and the pottery shards!

Great finds! I found a very similar set of old Cufflinks a few months back in a farm field- they look just like yours:

Both the half cent and cuff links still on my list of things to find, way to go!

I too love the green! (Coppa's)

Thanks everyone for the replies. I'm heading back to same place tomorrow and have permission to swing in the field that butts right up against a church that's been since at least the Civil War and it's right on the same route troops took to get to Gettysburg. I'm pumped!

Thanks again!
