Some Maine digs

[mainer]

Was able to get out yesterday for a few hours. Nothing too great. But did pick up a 1853 large cent, which someone has altered a little as you can see on the back. Guess they didnt have much to do. I dont dig a whole lot of thimbles but was able to score two for the day. And the key. What can I say? I dont know if I will ever dig a complete one or not, I have many parts and pieces but not a whole one yet. The last Item I have no idea what it is? If anyone has a guess I'm open to suggestions. Its about the size of a quarter, Im guessing maybe part of a pin.

Is the pin object a feather or leaf motiff? I have found one or two that reseambles leaves.
Great finds.....and yes, I agree with all others: one large cent and what you found is nothing to sneeze at. Good hunt.
Go back and bruise the area.

Thank you everyone.

Thanks everyone. you could be right on the whats it being part of a hat pin M.R. Thanks bud.

Quindy I didn't know you have never dug a large cent. With all the great digs you have its hard to believe. Hope you are able to get one in the near future you certainly deserve it.

I guess we take finding large cents for granted I never realized a lot of folks never found one nice hunt mainer , stop in and say CMD

Your right Dawg. I know I take finding a large cent for granted, and I certainly shouldnt.
