Return to the Crossed Cannons site - LC, IHPs, Barber, Marbles & more!

[Steve in PA]

I got a couple hours in yesterday at the farm where I found the crossed cannons insignia last week. I had a pretty good hunt with an 1848 Large Cent, 1862 fatty IHP, 1908 IHP, 1904 Barber dime, a beautiful 1916 Canadian penny, and couple very old marbles. Also got some early wheats including a 1909. Of the 22 pennies from this yard 8 were IHP, 12 wheats, 1 Canadian, and only 1 Memorial.

Here is the group shot


Reverse of some of the coins


I found these two marbles which I believe are both 19th century. I can't take credit for digging the swirly one. A mole dug it up. It was just laying there in his little dirt pile. The other one was in the hole with the 1904 dime. When I saw it in the hole I thought it was a musket ball at first. But I would take a marble like this ove a musket ball any day. I will post them on the Marble forum and see what I can find out about them.


And the obligatory dirt shots - LC and Barber


Thanks for looking
Steve

Thanks Donnie. Did you see the crossed cannons insignia I found last week? Not CW, but at least WWI.

Another great hunt! The LC is my favorite, but I’ve never found a Canadian LC, so very cool coin there. The marbles are unique and a Barber to top it off, nice. Congrats!!

Thanks Thad. I had a case of Michelob Ultra for the farmer, but he wasn't home this time. Hopefully I'll see him before I drink it

I was happy with those marbles. In three trips I've found three marbles. I wonder how many are in this yard?

Great finds Steve!

Thanks Doc!

I usually like looking for older stuff, late 18th century/early 19th century, but this spot has been fun.

You had an awesome hunt! Man you got so much! LC, Barber, IHP's, wheats, and a foreign coin! And those great looking marbles! I could only dream of a day like that! Congrats!

Thanks Why Me? Places like this are out there, you just have to knock on the right door!

Thanks Tommy. This place wasn't hard to find, but I was lucky that the farmer is so cool about me hunting on his property.
