Thanks for sharing your photo.....and folks.....I don't think his coin is the one pictured at the bottom....he said that's what one "should" look like. I hope yours does clean that well though RasRandy! Good luck and find some more!!
That is an awesome coin Randy! Please tell us if you plan to try to clean it up & if so, how you plan to do this. Also pics after any cleaning attempt...............Im very interested!
The fossils are brachiapods. I used to find quite a few in Michigan when I was young. We once found a clump similar to yours only with 3 times as many.
Very cool flying eagle, I can only dream.
A big congrats..I know that felling i dug one up in April same year as yours.
It's a rare design only minted four two years.They are few and far between.
