    5 copper night deserves a post. I'm usually to lazy to post

    I got out tonight to a new site. Hunted for two hours and hit it well. My coins were 2 draped bust LCs 2 KGs 1 NJ copper a Fatty IH and my first Flying Eagle cent after all these years.
    One of the LCs was made into a washer.

    A hunt like that, for me, might require medical attention.

    Guys guys they got a quick rinse and some Ren wax. The only one with a readable date was the Eagle and it was a 58 very pleased to have them all but until I get the cob or even the 3center were not going to do the photo shoot. If i do get a 3center (always wanted one) or a Spanish cob I will photo and talk about them till you ask me to please stop.
