A day of firsts!!

[BFR]

It was a day of firsts. My first large cent. A 1834 and 2nd is a 1824. My first 1800s coin.

My first thimble.



And my first toy gun.


Thanks for looking

Loving the Large cents. I've never found a complete toy gun that's pretty cool!

Thanks everyone!!

Nice! Care to share the details? (type of site, etc).

The site is a mid 1800s farm that has been gone since the 60s . These would have been in the orchard behind where the barn was.

The first one rang in with a weak 82-86 on the at pro. 8 inches deep in sand soil. The second was 5 feet away. It rang in at 40-76 weak signal. And about 8 inches down.
