2 cents coin!!!!

[ChicagoJohn]

I went to old park and I found an old coin at about 8 inch deep. I cant believe that I can see 2 cents. I cleaned it at home and its my lifetime find! 1864 2 cents! I found 1924 and 1926 wheat cents two days ago.

Congrats on the recovery!! It's in remarkable condition. I have found only one..it's toasted so bad that i didn't realize what it is for quite some time.

just think, when that coin was made the country was still fighting the Civil War. Pretty amazing.

Outstanding find !

And I'm willing to bet it came in as a solid --- FE - 12 - CO - 40.

Thank you everyone! Reading 12-41 but jump around 12-41 because its deep! I was thinking of old wheat cent! I found it but made me confusing because its too big for penny and I was thinking of large cent until I saw 2 cents and I was praying for NOT 2 cents token! I cant believe that I found it! Key is OLD park or OLD ground!
