I really had a great month....just wish my silver pocket watch was half as nice as DiggerDon's. Also this is the first month in what seems like a year where I did not find a war nik...probably need a new coil.

Happy hunting - Jared

Great finds. You must be close to the border with all the Canadian coinage you find. Great month indeed. I did find a war nickel Sunday so I got you covered for July. WD

I'd agree you had a great month! :thumbsup02:
Was that quarter in a fire?
I think I've found three war nickles in 10 years.
Is that rifle pin WW1?
Congrats, Jared!

What a great month indeed! So many wonderful finds to drool over. :drool:

That Barber Quarter has nice detail. I found a Barber Half one time that had that black sulfide on it. Angel's method of removing it worked wonders.

I love the Canadian large cents too! And all of the old nickels! And the silver dimes! And the Indian Heads! :clapping:

The Barber just has a bunch of that black sulfide crap on it. Too bad as it is in great shape too.

Yes I think it is a Rifle Collar stud from WW1 era.

Great work Bucknut!! I have found about 8 war nickels in the last 2 years (no offense to others, but I thought it is common). My challenge is a Buffalo nickel believe it or not. They certainly don't roam under my coil.

The variety you found is why I think we all do this. Just never know what is going to come out from just below the surface.
