Finally found some old coins from a 1769 house I've hunted at least a half dozen times. They were both tough digs, with the LC being under the root of a tree and the IH under the stepping stone of a walkway. I'm totally amazed at the condition of the IH after possibly 149 years in the ground it's condition is nearly perfect.

Very nice coins. Congrats. GL&HH.
 

a short bath in hot peroxide (1 hour, repeat as needed) will remove the brown dirt and some of the green with no damage to coin details. both coins will go from great to AMAZING. the '65 should bring around $40 and the LC the same or more. SUPER FINDS
 

nice!! beats my two Wheaties for today..
