Hey all,

Prolab69 came over to my 1859 School House to do some hunting. We hunted the front yard for a little then he was off... I looked around and found him in the field right by the house. I asked what ya doing back here and he replies "Finding a large Cent" I said no way....He shows me and we can't really tell what it is. Later we clean it up and see a clear Outline of someones head. If someone can ID the exact type and year that would be cool.

Here is a photo, enjoy!

Keep @ it and HH!!

Yeah the best we can figure...seems like around 1835, checking all the outlines and shaddows, it was my first find of the year, It was just what I needed to get me primed up for the season ahead, Mudswat and I have been working on some new leads for places to hunt. So maybe you`ll be seeing more of our pictures soon.
keep digging

Yeah buddy, nice one. That peroxide did a pretty good job too. I hope that field beside the house produces many more good ones. Best of luck to you.
