Went back to the loccation i found the bullet the other day and i found something i never thought i would ever find a 1864 2 cent coin.I tried to get the best pictures i could but they didnt come out as good as i wanted them to.The 2nd letter in cents looks like a N on the scan,dont know why it came out like that. I didnt do nothing to the coin but washed it in water so here it is.

Even though it is a little rough looking, it is still a nice find.
My first Indian Head penny looked worse than that with no date and was
all corroded because of the fertilizers in the park lawn.
Cool find though.

Wow! I would love to say I found one of those in any identifiable condition!

Great job!

Very nice coin :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
You might want to soak it in olive oil for a while that might help it out.
Keep the dirt flying and and the rewards of relics will keep coming. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

im still looking for my first two center. too bad about the condition on yours but it is still a great find! it looks like the soil in your area is not kind to copper. thats the way it is here too. its a rare thing for me to find a copper coin in good shape. congrats on a great find! :thumbsup:
 

Love it when people just throw their 2 cents in (the dirt) ;D nice find.
 

Those two centers are a bonus to find. Yours looks like the first one i found. Congrats and ATA-BOY on the first!!! 8)
