    ...in the ground that is. They are nickel and just rust up in the ground. This one HAD great detail on her but is pretty corroded. You can see the feather detail was real good on this coin. Oh well, still fun to find em. They are pretty hard to find detecting. I have only found about 4 of em in my years of diggin. I have one that came outta the ground pretty nice but I gave it up to a museum property that I found it at. I think I have a photo of it somewhere. If I find it I'll post her.

    Jim:
    I have a few recovered Flying eagles, some just barely discernable.
