Found another 2 cent coin...well kinda lol

Very first signal I dig, I get this shredded looking 2 center with the middle missing, it looks like it's an 1864 which would be nice cause I found the 1865 one about 6 feet from this one. Even though I wish it would be whole lol still a neat find and now my oldest coin found, beating the 1865 2 center haha

Tell the truth. You were tired and you put a "small nick" right through the coin! LOL

Interesting find!

I almost threw it away too, I thought it was one of those metal key rings until I uncovered the dirt around it, and was amazed that it was a 2 cent with the middle missing lol

It's a lesson in disguise. Always clean and investigate everything before you toss it out. I save anything that looks like it might even be a piece of something. I've pieced together spurs from tiny pieces found in plowed fields. Some don't look like anything but a small piece of cast brass.

Neat find.
