Yesterday I found a couple of Firsts for me. :happy:
First coin from 1800's
First 2 Center - 1865
First Indian Head Penny - 1880
Here is the 2 Center after mild cleaning and soaking in mineral oil overnight. The IH is still soaking.

Those are some fine firsts! Congrats! Are you digging in the Keene area?

the two-center looks to be in nice shape :smitten:
Congrats on your firsts, especially the awesome two cent piece! |:cheering:
That's a terrific coin, and it appears to be in decent shape. I remember what a thrill it was when I found my first two cent piece last year.
:perfect10:
yep, these were found in Keene.
After more soaking, they should clean up even nicer.
Thanks All.
Very exciting to knock two off the list in one hunt....or three (1st 1800s). I was up to Concord for a hunt last year...didn't do as well as you. Congrats and keep it up. |:cheering:
:congrats: on some nice firsts. I have yet to find a two cent piece and it's on my list. My in-laws lived in Keene before they passed on so I know the place pretty well but that was before I started metal detecting.
Continued good hunting.
Hi Bob_e99
Where are you located? I'm in Winchester and always looking for others to go with.

:wow:Great bunch of firsts :congrats: I took me forever to get my 1st two-center. Great finds
Super looking coin :shocked04: It's always nice to see coins clean up nicely for a change. Congrats on breaking the 1800's barrier :peace:
Congrats on the firsts! The 2 center is one not found that often, so congrats! Where were you hunting, a yard, park?
|:cheering: Very nice coin!
Congratulations! :clapping:
An old park.
I'm hoping it will clean up a little better after a long soaking. Still haven't tried cleaning the IH.
I'm in Salem, NH. We should try to hook up some time and do a hunt together.Quote:
