Default wheat penny

I went metal detecting cause school ended and I found a wheat penny (57D) and some clad and a carnival carnival token. It's at fort Kamehameha on Hickam AFB. Not much but I'll go there in the future.

Hey Nate - are you stationed at Hickam? I'm working on a project on Oahu and visit about once a month...got a great tour of Pearl and Ford Island last trip...I haven't brought my machine - cause I wasn't sure where I could hunt outside of the beach at the hotel...I'll PM you next trip - maybe we can get together for a hunt...

Sounds like a good hunt to me! Nice going!

I got to tell you, it left me a little depressed. I'm older than your Wheatie!
