Short morning hunt yielded one silver and it’s my oldest Canadian.
Came out of the ground nearly black. And it rang up like a wheat penny.
Took some cleaning and it’s still very stained. But it’s an 1876.

"Young Vicky was hot"
I thought this thread was going to have tips on a new pair of shorts, but that old coin is just as good
Congrats!

I thought it was going to be an actual pair of shorts with a sleeve for a lesch or something built in. I will take "hot Vicky" over that though. Congrats on the silver Canadian sir!
