20 CENT COIN FOUND IN PLOWED FIELD

[Swanie1]

Several years ago, my friend and I were detecting in a plowed field, here in the Midwest, that had been a fairground which closed in 1910. I got a loud signal from a clod of dirt on top of the ground and broke it open. I thought I'd found a seated liberty quarter but, after turning it over, realized that it was an 1875s 20 cent piece. In all of the years that I've detected, I have never seen a 20c piece. It is in great condition

GREAT FIND!!! It would be a great find, even if it were in poor condition, which it isn't.
And, you have the field to continue hunting.....with who-knows-what under the earth.....maybe another...........dig, and see.

I had heard of the 20c coins, but have never dug one. That, in itself, is a treasure, for your memory bank.

Keep us posted on what else comes out from that ground. You should have some interesting posts.

those old fair grounds are awsome sounds like a spot that deserves a lot more looking good luck.
