I,ve been out all day hunting with CoffinS .did pretty well both of us got some clad. About three o'clock was quitting time, had adult things to take care of. I went back out about 4 to the park I go to if I got time to kill. To my surprise they had dug a trench all the around the outside of the park about a foot deep. came out with this pretty baby.

Nice Going

I was down in Mexico myself, it was a three hour flight south of Tajuana a few months ago. I found the same coins, two 1884's and two 1885's, along with Mexican 5 centavos, and others. I was wondering what someone could buy with an un centavo back in the 1800's? Petty cool finding that oldie here in the U.S.
HH everyone

We have a pretty heavy Hispanic population here in Logansport Indiana since IBP/Tyson came to town 22 years ago, but the question is how long has it been in the ground? Great find Diggerjonny!

Super! That's a really cool find. Looks to be in pretty good condition, too!
