Kype Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 boring drery day. saw the metal detector so took it out and found copper. a wheat penny. cant make out the date. so somewhere between 1906 and 1955. still way older then i am. was about 6 inches down. you can just make out the "one cent" my house was built in 1890. and still havent had time to metal detect the rest of it. must be much more around or maybe and hopefully some silver.

NotJust22s Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 In that condition it’s probably worth 2-3 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunterbob1 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Disagree with the 51 d. Wouldn't show that deterioration like that. The mint change the metal composites. I think the last copper pennies for 1949. “In a civilized and cultivated country, wild animals only continue to exist at all when preserved by sportsmen.” -Theodore Roosevelt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
