I went back to the woods this afternoon and gave it another shot. I''m hoping to find an old silver coin back in the 1800's but instead found an unusual coin - a canadian penny. I find canadian coins all the time but not back in the 1800's - still I'll take it. It means there are more old coins to be found - maybe even silver. This penny was made from 1850 to 1857 only so it's in that time frame. Too bad the date has a huge dent on it - so I'll never know the exact age.
Saturday I went back to where I found all the wheat pennies - again hoping to find silver but only found another wheat and a 1947 nickel. The silver is calling - just have to find it.
