Silver and some Relics!

Same spot as always, the house site from the 1920's still is spitting coins out as of yesterday!

Three silvers, the most silver coins I have ever gotten in one day. An amazing AU mercury dime, and two war nickels, found right near each other. Also found two buckles, the smaller one I almost threw out because the iron tongue had rusted completely, making it look like a fat nail. The buffalo nickel was found near the other coins as well.

As for the US rosette, I refuse to clean it anymore. I tried to, and the edge cracked, but thankfully it didn't completely fall apart I don't know the exact dating of it, but I have been told it could be Civil War to about WW1. Assuming its the latter.

Also, saw my SC button on the banner above this post Thanks to whoever did that!


EDIT: forgot pictures. D'oh!

Congrats on the silver and I like the US rosette :smitten:

Great finds, congrats!

Great hunt. Nickels always seem to show up after a few hunts are in. Great finds WD

Yeah, I've been pulling a lot of nickels out of this place recently, mainly because I decided to run all metal mode on the AT Pro. I've had nickels ring up in the 60s-70s in the VDI. Surprising what you can miss!

Awesome finds!

I'm a huge fan of all metal mode at most of the older spots I detect - which can be quite trashy. Has allowed be to find some great keepers. Love the rosette and yes, that Merc is indeed a dandy one. Congrats.

Congrats on the finds. My nickels come up 52-53 on my AT Pro in WI. Love the US Rosette. That is sweet!

The house site I'm hunting dates back to the 1900's, so on goes the all metal mode

I have found so many things at this spot that rang in funny numbers.. I only dig them because they're consistent, otherwise I don't dig. I have found numerous buttons, buckles, bullets, and other relics that way.

Thanks for looking and HH

I have dug war nickels at other spots that show up at 52-53, but at this spot they can go from 50-72 VDI. Even regular nickels show up around 50-60 VDI!

Thanks for looking and HH!
