Well I found the 1877 in my yard. It was in a 2X2 mylar holder! Here's the story:
Last Fall Guy found this awesome coin in a cornfield here in Indiana. What a find!! He put it in a 2X2 and took it to the Indiana State Coin Show in Indianapolis in November. He rode with me.
When he got back home he looked in his pocket and it was gone! He called me immediately and asked me to look in the truck. I turned my truck inside out and found nothing. He said the last time he saw it was at the show.
He called the people who hosted the show but nothing had been turned in. So we figured it was dropped in the parking lot at the show and somebody made a nice find.
Anyway I forgot about it. Since then we had a lot of snow and ice and it pulled down a lot of limbs next to my driveway. Yesterday it finally melted so I was in the yard pulling limbs away and I looked down and there was a dirty 2X2 with a coin in it. I picked it up and saw it was an Indian... I thought "wow that's wierd' and it took a minute to sink in that I had found his coin because I was convinced it was lost forever!! <img src="/metal/html/biggrin.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt="

Needless to say I called him immediately and told him the good news!
It's not every day you eyeball an 1877 Indian in your yard! <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=""> <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=""> <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt="">
