1857 Flying Eagle cent, and killer new spot

[WeaponsUSMC]

I have been trying to find the owner of a field that I know was our local training grounds for the county troops during the Civil War. After gaining permission to hunt this field, I was only able to hunt for a few minutes because I had my little boy with me. First signal of my short hunt was this 1857 Flying Eagle cent, got to love this fat cents. I knew it was a fatty even before I seen the date, the thickness is a dead give-away. Hopefully this is the first of many great finds at this site. HH......Bill
