I am feeling pretty lucky as of lately. I have been only hunting for a month this year so far but getting some oldies. I was suprised with my 1875 1/2 Reale earlier this week but then I got lucky today with an early 1817 Large Cent (at least early for Michigan). Not sure why it has the big nasty hole in it. Terrible condition but I am not complaining! Also got a 62 Fatty, 87 Indian, a couple early wheats and lots of great relics. Is the tag with the No 119 a bus token? Let me know if you know for sure what it is. One of the pieces that I need an ID on looks like the first Swiss Army knife ever made. It has a clip on the back, what in the world is it? A few other whatsits there, chime in if you know what they are.
Today we decided to hunt close to home and found an old homesite that appears to be a virgin spot. There are not many spots like this left around here. Later, we headed north to another town to do some hunting but only found some miscellaneous relics.
Not pictured is another large cent (1838) that my buddy found. It was pretty cool. He called me over to show me the coin which was sticking out of the plowed dirt. Wish we could have got a picture of it before pulling it out of the ground.
In the group photo I added a few eyeball finds as well.
