October 22, 2017 – Cornfield hunt produced a 1876 seated dime, Three IHPs (1869 and 2 no dates) and varies farm field finds. I thought I finally found my first cannon ball but it is made of lead. Not sure if this was a weight for something?

Nice hunt! The giant ball of lead is interesting. I would have thought cannon ball as well.
We would love to see closeup photos of the coins. The seated dime is a great find, and 1869 is a semi-key Indian Head. Nice!
