I have been hitting this area and have found lots of old coins. Yesterday i found a 178? Spanish reale, 1820 large cent, 1941 quarter, Indian head penny and one of the rarest coins i will ever find! A 1787 New York cent! It is eat up pretty bad but you can make out what it is. One article says only 12 know to exist! (13 now) Also found a few civil war bullets, old lock and more! Here are a couple pics of my finds! Awesome day!

Sorry, words escape me at the moment...so you'll have to settle for this - :notworthy::notworthy::notworthy:
 

Fantastic. Congrats and thanks for sharing!
 

That is one rare find. Very nice.
 

Amazing finds!
 

Just amazing--and really not in that bad of condition because I see letters!! Congratulations! -Lisa & John
 

DANG NICE FIND AND OLE RELICS ..
 

That's a wonderful find. There a lot conservation experts in Virginia and it may be worth a call to se what they say. Here is a snap from the 2014 Red Book. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473515285.875909.jpg

Values aside, this is an extremely rare coin and the history surrounding its mintage is great. I think this is a banner coin and I'll be casting my vote.
 

WOW.....Called Indian and NY Arms. Banner on this one! CONGRATULATIONS! Hogge
 

the indian must have sore feet----a long journey from NY---ALL those finds kick a$$. banner vote sent
 

I have been lurking Treasurenet for at least 15 years, and I have never seen one of those coppers.

I am also going to vote for a banner. We need the crème de la crème of filthy pennies up there.
 

Wow...... just wow . Vote on its way
 

Wow what an insane find. Banner for sure!!!! If sold the sky is the limit on prices. Do not try to clean that coin at all. Professional attention is needed
 

I agree! I wont even wash it off!
