    Camp Trenton 1-2-3 cent piece

    Went back to the same place I was yesterday , Found a two cent piece so that makes 1-2-3 cents from there . I sure am making the money . The tree behind my truck is the same tree next to the railroad in yesterdays picture . I think this is just an old house place I guess . But they are getting the beans off the field across the road , thats the one I want to hunt . So here it is for today , buckle , thimble , two rim fire casens , .44 cal. bullet , trigger guard , M.W.C. lock cover , 1865 two cent piece , round piece of brass , lead , brads , and dont know what the other thing is . Good luck to all .

    Hidy ID. The railroad here was the M & O . So it might be for Mobile ,Wisconson & Connecit or Chicago . What ever it was in 1800s .

    Great bunch of finds CWN.
    Love the extra pictures you are putting in your posts. A big congrats on the 2 Cent piece. To the best of my knowledge... there were no 4 cent coins minted. So Tim is right, maybe a Shield nickel is in order. lol
    Looking forward to you getting into the field you have your eye on. :->

    Did you ever plant those coins for your buddy?
    I bet you could hunt a field like that for months. Another great hunt for you, keep it up.
