Broke my personal "oldest" coin record with this 1865 2 Cent coin!

Been hitting the tot lots quite a bit lately, and cleaning up on the clad and junk jewelry. But I've knocked a few more doors and opened up several new permissions. This happened and I can honestly say, I was shocked. In pretty decent shape with a nice patina, too!

I find those coins hold up well in the soil, at least the few I have found. However, yours is exceptionally nice. I love the Civil War era date too. Congrats!

Amazing how well those hold up in the dirt after getting leeched for 150 years of so. So fine in fact that you can even see how worn they were when lost. Yours is exquisite WTG

Great Save on the CW era 2 cent piece. Great looking coin.
