Old Tree gives up Old Coin:thumbup:

[John - Maryland]

I found this Old Coin at the base of what's left of this very Old Tree in a park. The town dates back to the early 1700's. The coin is corroded but I was lucky that the date is still there. I think you can make it out in the picture. It turned out to be a 1798 Draped Bust. Corroded yes, but it still fun to find.
