As a kid in Connecticut the most common summer employment was working tobacco. In a broad left fired I found a 1735 English penny with a deep score mark, probably from a plough, diagonally across the obverse of the coin. It was in pretty bad condition and such coins are pretty common so it wasn’t worth much but it was a neat find thinking it had been in that patch of soil for 230years at that point.
