Flying like an Eagle

[laplander]

The ground was really dry and the signals were few and far between on this old cabin site. The TID was a broken 14 bouncing to iron so I gave it a shot and I am glad I did, it was only six inches deep with one square nail in the hole. This is my second flying eagle this year from the same site. Rapidly becoming my favorite site LOL Its a 58 mintage.

That is a very hard to find coin Jeff. Did your first one read the same?

Yeah, that's a tough coin to recover. Only minted for 3 years as I recall. Excellent job on finding one, let alone two. HH jim tn

The first one didn't fair as well like they were trying to make a washer. It was in 2 separate holes and read like 10 and 6. Took me a while to ID It positively.
