Has anyone ever found any Flying Eagle pennies.???

[Ralph in Albany NY]

I've seen Indians, large cents and lots of different silver but not Flying Eagles....

Ralph,

Flying eagles and fat Indian heads show up right in the middle of pull tab territory. Unless you are in an older site without lots of modern trash it means you have to dig ALOT of junk to find them.

Unfortunately they come in as very low indian heads or mostly high tabs so most are left in the ground..Those that hunt cellars holes and the like and dig all repeatable signals get one once in a while. Like gold coins just hit where a lot of junk also does so many pass right over them...

Found one in 1997 on a old road and one in 1998 in an overgrown field that was once a mill site work area. My son just found one recently in the woods near an old 19th century work area.
Yes, Jim in Upstate NY has found way too many in recent years!

This is the first one I found (what a thrill) came from a residence. Not too bad of shape.

I found a couple others in a field that were all chewed up.
