1877 Indian Head Cent

I found a lot of Indian Head Cents in this park and today I got a key date 1877 Indian Head Cent. Didn't know until I got home and washed it. I also Found the rusty Iron Key.

This park had a dance hall until it burnt in 1926.
July 1860's or 70's brought crowds of farmers and townspeople to the "Oronoco Picnic Grounds."They sat on planks seats around a band stand of rough-hewn lumber and listened to melodies by the Oronoco Silver Coronet Band and a Quartet.
On June 28,1898,the Modern Woodmen of America gathered crowds at the Oronoco "Picnic Grounds" for a county picnic.

I still think EVERY 1877 should be on the banner, it is a RARE find, no matter if there is already one up there, it doesn't make yours LESS rare, it is my dream coin to find..........and definately a BANNER find!
