It's Tired...But It Lifted Me Up!

[Bell-Two]

First good find from the fields so far this young season is also a first for me. I was getting a 12-23 on the CTX good solid signal and was thinking flat button when this tired but much desired coin reminded me of a favorite piece of scripture.

Isaiah 40:31 Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up [with] wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.

This Eagle is a bit tired but it did mount me up with joy!

An 1858 Flying Eagle Cent!

Congrats on your Flying Eagle cent :clapping: They are a beautiful coin. Too bad they were only around for a couple of years. If you found one there , maybe there are more to follow.

Huge :congrats: on your FE. Don't get to see many posted. As coinnut stated its a shame they only made them for a few years.

Huge congrats on your first Flying Eagle Cent, Tony! <:

That's why you should dig ALL signals when field hunting, because you never know when it might be an unusual coin like that one.

:congrats:
