Got out to my hot spot today for a few after the rain this morning. Few more buttons that makes 12, large cent number 2 but can't make out the date, Indian number 6 no date, and my first 3 cent 1851. This is my 5th or 6th time to the same stop. It's just a tiny little spot near a cellar hole the rest of the area is all grown in. the last time I was there I only found 1 button so I thought I had cleaned it out but after today I guess not. Looks like I'll be going be goin back soon. can't wait till fall to see what's on the other sides of this place.

Great find, I wish you luck on your return.I have a few cellars holes I am going to hit this winter also, cant wait.
 
That 3 cent piece is cool. I like that star on the back. Keep digging!
 
I've found only one of these coins and it was in pretty good shape. For some reason, I do love this coin.

Good job!

HH!
 
I think people (detectorists) like these coins as they are VERY hard to come across. Many diggers will never find one.

The one I found has a hole, and had a signal of a pull tab @ 6 inches deep.

Sounds like a great site, and no doubt there is another keeper there waiting for you. Good luck in the fall.
 
Nice 3 center, in my 40yrs. of metal detecting i have only found 1 and that was 3 yrs. ago. Congrats.
 
Nice coin, looks like its in really good shape.
 
WOW!! That is SO NICE!!!
It's on my wish list...

Great find! I wouldn't wait until fall......I'd be there with a weed whacker this afternoon!
