Description

A resident and Amateur Archaeologist (Guy Mellgren), said he found the coin on August 18, 1957, at the Goddard site. It was an extensive archaeological site at an old Native American settlement at Naskeag Point on Penobscot Bay in Brooklyn, Maine. A 1978 article in TIME identified the site as an ancient Indian rubbish dump near the coastal town of Blue Hill.
