Beautiful day! Sixty degrees in February in Southwest Michigan! Had to get out!
Had a permission on a home that the owner states was 1930-1940s. Was in an older part of town so I felt it had good potential for older items. After only ten minutes I dug up parts of an oil lantern. So I felt that verified the property had a longer history.
The soil at this location was very sandy. So the coins were fairly well preserved. Love the '97. Just a bit of wear and a nice patina. The wheat cent was one of only 10 million minted.
Today's finds...
1880 Indian Head Penny
1897 Indian Head Penny
1912-D Wheatback cent
Brass reins guide
Aluminum thimble
Harmonica reed X 3
