It's that time of year. The large cents are starting to pop out of the ground. A large copper coin with a little dirt on it will always bring a smile to my face. Congratulations!
That was in my yard, I just recently got permission for a church property where there have been 4 churches, the first dating back to the 1700's...
According to the pastor.. it has never been hunted! So hopefully I will get out there tomorrow.
I love to hear when someone is rewarded after digging under a big root. Sometimes you just feel like giving up. I'm so glad you found something great. Congrats!
