Still at the crazy work schedule but took a buddy along for the drive and we stopped at a new foundation site along the way. He ended up with a 1893 Canadian large cent and a horseshoe. I first found the 1888 Newfoundland large cent and then not far off I found a early 1920's penny spill. There ended up being five Canadian penny's. Three 1920's,one 1921 and a 1917 large cent in the hole. It's always nice to see that they still had large cents in their pockets during the change over to small cents. I didn't get much time to clean the coins but they appear to be in fine shape under the crust. Also dug up four old glass mason jar lids. Thanks for looking! [emoji2]
