Weekend Hunts hi-lited by 200 year old Large Cent

[wisconsin digger]

Only had time to hunt late Saturday and early Sunday morning today but the hunts were quite productive. Saturday someone was shining down on me because the place I hunted I've hit pretty hard before but I was hitting some squeakers where most turned into to silver including a quarter/dime spill. On the night I found 5 silver with a Washington, a Merc, 2 Rosies and another war nickel. Today I went out to where I found the 2 Cent piece and picked up another Merc a Canadian silver dime, 1905 "V" nickel and (I still don't believe it) an 1817 Matron Head Large Cent in pretty decent shape. This is the oldest coin I have ever found. definitely a fun couple of hunts. Keep swinging Wisconsin Digger.

Wow! Great finds! 1817 sure is an early date for your neck of the woods! Congratulations and HH Dave.

Holy cow, what are the odds?! Nice group of silver, but that largie is the find on the day. Your little area has some very early history including military roads through the region as i found out researching Kohlsville when a friend moved there. Congrats!
