Hunted river for 6 hours today.Only got rained on twice.Didn't find much.But if you only find one good coin this is the one to find!1864 2 center!I love 2 cent pieces this is my 5th one and 1st one with e-track.Been a few years since i found one.It was a foot down in the mud.I found the bottle last week and forgot about it till i found it in car. "N.BILLSTEIN PHARMACIST CHESTER,PA"Not sure of age but seam does not go to top so it has some age.Small chip out of top but otherwise complete.I don't hunt for bottles but always love finding a old one.

Nice finds, congrats!
 

I wonder if it refers to the "city" of Chester, which is in Delaware County (PA) or Chester County itself, also in PA.
 

Great finds.:hello:
 

Two nice recoveries. I love those 2-cent coins too. I've only found one so far myself, but it was in great shape.
Congrats,
MM
 

cool finds. there sure has been a lot of 2-centers dug this year
 

Wow mud hunting, you must be a sight when your done. Cool finds, nice work.
 

Nice score on the 2 cent piece !
 

Really like those two cent pieces...............HH
 

I've only found two 2 Cent coins myself. One was in nice shape, the other was corroded and stuck to a 1864 Fatty Indian Head. Congrats, those are fun coins to find!
