    eight 100+ year old cents

    Went back to my 1824 house again...

    Pulled a few decent keepers on my last hunt there including this beautiful 1851 braided hair Largie









    Pretty happy with that. Also got 1870 and 1876 Indians, both iffy signals (that's all that's left there ) both semi keys .

    I also got a nice v nickel in the same hole as literally... ten nails that's three days in a row with v nickels... o_o

    I'm giving the owners a few relics from the house including the cool brass pig, a skeleton key, and a civil war bullet a way to give thanks on thanksgiving

    I also dug this navy button

    idk if it's anything it's iron backed but...



    Thanks guys for looking ... HH

    I <3 colonial relics!

    Very nice hunting, especially that V nickel surrounded by the nails. I know you get a lot of IH's but how about your LC finds?

    Again, congrats on some great hunting.

    Al - I have 7 coppers for the year. It's harder to get them in VA compared to New England it seems.
