History's Dirty Secrets #9. a penny for your thoughts!
After 8 days without detecting, I needed some digging! 3 hunts about 8 hours. 3 Barbers, a merc, a rosie, and a multiple signal which I thought was a nickle and a silver turned out to be a 1910 V nickle and an 1840 large cent.thats a first for me. And my oldest U.S. coin. Hope you enjoy! Chicago Ron

The best part was when you found that large cent, your voice went about three octaves higher
I have never found a large cent either, but I can tell you they are far bigger than the Lincolns. You had a great hunt, keep up the good work
Congrats to some sweet coins. You are the reason I want to buy one of those Minelab machine's. And Soon I will.
