Hello Everyone,
I was at a late 1700’s home yesterday and found a 1787 Fugio Cent. The 13 chain links are clearly obvious but the back is pretty pitted up. However, using a magnifying glass I am able to see “Fugio” along with some of the lettering of “Mind Your Business”. I can also make out the 787 in the date.
I’m hoping to get back to the yard again today but I’m sure I will never have another one of these come out of the ground again.
