I Added a Duplicate to My Bucket List Today! Flying Eagle Cent!!

I added a bucket list duplicate today... a Flying Eagle Cent! It's rough, but it's still a pretty hard to find coin. I think it's an 1857. In 23 years of metal detecting, this is only the second one I have ever found! Both came out of Civil War camps. I also got a couple of knapsack pieces, button back, suspender piece, and a buckshot ball. It was a pretty good day! Thanks for looking and HH!

Congrats on your second Flying Eagle. That is a tough one for most people. I only have one in 30 years of detecting.
