    Flying Eagle

    The Wife asked me to take some wood to her aunt's house and I figured since I was there I would do some metal detecting in the woods. This place was built in the 1650s but have yet to find anything from the 1600s or 1700s, but I'll take what I can. Yesterday gave me 1901 Barber dime, and a 1857 Flying Eagle.
