    I went metal detecting this morning, thanks to the hot weather finally taki=
    ng a break, so I took advantage to go out and get some exercise.

    My short hunt was interesting, I got a button that is around1800 by the bac=
    kmark, and it has an acorn in the center, sort of remember that had some s=
    ignificant meaning back than, I think :>)

    Then I got two coppers close to each other, I knew the one was a Large Cent=
    but had no idea on what the other smaller one was till I got home and soak=
    ed them in peroxide.

    Also, a possible musket part? any experts out there??

    OK, the NJ appears to be a 14-J

    But, the Large Cent might be my rarest Large Cent I ever found, even a rare=
    r variety than my 1794 S-19a. It appears to be a Sheldon NC-2. I know =
    a few Large Cent experts in this group so hoping my attribution is correct.=
    I feel badly the coin has nice detail but the ground was not kind to it a=
    t all. Did the best I could on restoring/conserving it.
