Hi all,
Did some research and found a new sight/field. There was some brick and a little pottery so I looked for the high points on the field. Pulled a few buttons and then got a monster signal 95/96 on the t2 in the middle of no where in this field. I dug a really big plug and called my buddy over. He scanned it and said that's an interesting signal ang broke the plug. When I saw this I thought it was an old can lid and he noticed the reeded edge. We cleaned it with some water on the field and found the date,1879. Yes it is in rough shape, but, what a surprise to find. Ended the day with a few more buttons.
Thanks for looking and HH.

Don

That's a silver dollar with character and a past. If coins could only talk.....
