Hi everyone! This morning I returned again to the field that produced that handful of great buttons and a coin that appears to be a Liberty Cap. (4 Dandies and a Liberty Cap! ).
Well, there's no question about the coin I found today: a 1794 Liberty Cap, and this one is in pretty good condition! Both sides have distinctive images, and even the lettered edge is clearly visible.
I knew it was a good signal at the time, so I was careful digging the hole and when the coin started to emerge from the sandy soil I stopped to take a few pictures "in situ"; I've included them after all of the pictures of the coin itself.
The rest of the finds were good too: more buttons, a piece of "fancy" (probably from a saddle or other horse tack?), and maybe a musket ball.
I can't wait to go back to this site!
