More sidewalk recoveries!!!!!!!! My first Large Cent!!!!!!!!!!

[michigan michael]

It has been slow and rough searching this old 1800's side walk. I must of dug a whole box of nails by now. lol I managed to hunt up an 1885 Indian head that is in rough shape. The rim is rough but everything else is clear. I pulled an axe head! This was a very cool relic find. It makes you really think of the times. If a shop owner today had an axe in front of his store it would make the news for sure! Or at least cause a law suit. Lastly, my favorite is a 1852 Quebec Bank Token, One Penny. It has a hole in it but I have seen a lot of pics with this coin drilled. Very cool! Thanks for looking.

Where is the large cent?

The bank token is also a large penny. I really am not sure why it is a token as well. Guess I have some research to do. THX- HH

Thanks everyone! Yes this sidewalk has been real good to me. I wish it would of been a little nicer to the IH pennies I took from it. I have a couple more surprises from the old walk as soon as I get my camera back. A couple more silvers and coppers maybe......
