Harmonica, 1897 Canadian Cent and buttons

[VERMONTPACKRAT]

I got out for two very short hunts this weekend. Nothing too impressive. I am kinda likeing how well the 1897 Canadian cent cleaned up. Digging a whole harmonica was a surprise too. I have dug many reeds but never the whole thing. A few buttons, including the smallest Tombac button that I have ever dug round out the weekends finds.

The Canadian large cent is in great condition.....and that's probably the only complete harmonica I've seen posted.

Thanks for the replies!

The harmonica came from ground that is normally pretty wet. I wonder if that is why the wooden part is still there Also, the ground here in my area seems to be pretty good to copper, that may explain the condition of the Canadian cent.
