Found A Few

Lee43 · May 11, 2009

I have not been able to post for a while, so instead of showing each coin I just grouped them all together. This is what I have found in the last 2 to 3 weeks, has been rather good for me, we are starting to loose some of our fields to the crops being planted. A couple of the fields had been plowed and that I believe helped with the finds, The 1870 Indian was found by eye, Larry had just dug an Indian and I walked over to see it, we talked for a couple of minutes and as I started back to my detector I looked down and it was on top of a clod of dirt, Is it fair to get them "Setting"

In the scan the coins are a 1829 (with good clear date) 1837,1851 and 1854 Large cents, that makes 7 for this year so far, I really like them. There is an 1866 2 cent piece with a complete word WE, the Indians are 1860 (with a hole) 1866,1870 (2) 1875s, (2) 1882s and 1897, The barber dime is a 1897 and the Canadian dime is 18??. Thanks for looking......Lee
