1864 2 cent from the sod farm

[Gene Mean]

This farm is still active after 300 years. It's now a town park that a farmer leases for sod. After the sod is scraped I head in for a look. Some pottery shards and pebbles just underneath the sod and someone has been there before me not filling their holes and leaving the trash in the hole. That tells me they don't know what they're doing so I have a shot. The 2 cent piece was my second and it looks better uncleaned I think. The Andres pencils took the dirt and contrast away unfortunately. The silver plated jewelry was a nice surprise too. HH out there.

Many people have been there before you! I filled in my holes. It was much better before the put in the soccer fields.

Hey cb, you're right about the soccer fields. I'll keep trying on the sod farm side of the road.

Awesome eagle? plate?! I found this Royal Navy button right at the back door of the white house. Assuming the back door is the north facing one. The 1864 2 cent was on the sod field on the parking lot side and if you found that beauty near the parking lot I'll be hitting both sides of the road. Maybe I'll see you out there, I've been hitting it a lot lately.
