Its a rolled penny, which you would have purchased at the fair as a souvenir.

Thanks CRUSADER. You are correct. I just looked at the back and it was a 1902 Indian Head Cent.

Great finds!
A little history:
The first elongated coins in the United States were created at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois held in 1893.

No trouble at all with ticks. Last year I found two on me and thought I got them were the deer had sleep at night.
I may have gotten them in the high grass also.
The most aggravating thing in the woods are the darn spider webs full of bugs. They are always face high.
On warm days with a breeze the mosquito's aren't so bad but on cloudy days I stay away.
If I didn't have the woods to hunt around here I wouldn't be finding anything. The parks, boulevards, even most houses in the city have been hunted for miles. All the small towns depleted of all treasure.

Thanks Mackaydon. I would like a machine like that to make my own "rodgerdodger 2010 dug a coin here " or something like that.

Thanks 4-H. It makes it more interesting to see the Indian Head and the date on it and I might not of looked at the back through the loop if CRUSADER hadn't mentioned it.
