    3 Braided Hair LCs

    Got out today for a morning hunt. I suspected there might be another site on the other side of a stream near the cellar hole site I've been working latey but it didn't pan out. So I hiked back around and hit the far end of the previous site and was rewarded with three LCs. Two of them came from the old trail leading into the site.



    I had gone over this area briefly once before but decided to go low and slow this time.







    Also managed a couple of buttons and some typical homesite relics.



    Bugs weren't bad. Stay safe !
    Oldest find: 5,000 year old copper spearhead
    Oldest coin: 1699 William III halfpenny
    Purdiest coin: 1832 Capped Bust quarter
    Coolest find: USA button with blue threads still on shank

    Those are some nice looking coins! The back of that one looks odd though. The writing seems too far from the edge. Is it just badly struck? HH, Dave.
