Found an 181? large cent on 9-7-14 and a 1829 Large cent the next day on 9-8-14 at the same farmhouse. The farmhouse was 1890. So must have been another house before that. Property has been in same family since 1820s. Found my 3rd large cent on 11-3-14. It is a 184?.
Thought one would be hard to find in a lifetime but 3.

Congrats! I can personally vouch that finding ANY old coins in Indiana is tough! Maybe the soft soil lets them sink too deep, I don't know. HH, Dave.
