Plows Up $800 in Coin.

Newark, N. J.—Charles M. Webb, a farmer of Mount Freedom, is SBOO richer as the result of a few hours’ plowing. While turning over the ground he tame upon four remarkable old copper pennies. Two pieces were dated 1737. One of these has a horse’s head and plow on one side, the second haß a shield on one side and “Nova Caesarea” on the other. Another of Mr. Webb’s finds is a large copper cent of 1848, United States mintage. The fourth is an English copper piece of 1776. The coins are appraised by dealers at S2OO apiece.
