Nice finds! A real half cent still eludes me (not counting my 1/2 a large cent) and the pocked knife and musket balls are cool!

Congratulations on your first Half Cent! It may not be in the best shape but it still has a readable date. Nice pocket knife and other finds too.

Nice one Chris, Looks like it's probably in better shape than what the picture is letting on. The pocket knife is cool and could possibly date to the same time as the 1/2 cent. I dug one like it last year from a spot that produced coins and relics from early 1700's through 1812 period but nothing newer than that. I've got pics of it if you want to see it.... Dave

Congrats on the half cent Chris. Its always great to cross something off the list. I'm up to nine large cents and yet the half cent still eludes me. Maybe next year!
