Got out at 5:00 tonight for a couple hours of detecting. Headed back to the
yard that produced some nice keepers yesterday. I few more popped out tonight. :happydance01:

Although the Rosie is a little out of place with the rest of the older coins I have found there, I'll take it.
The Buffalo nickel is dated 1913.

Also found a generic token (front and back are identical) and a Chinese coin.
I'd appreciate any thoughts anyone might have on the age of this coin. From what I can tell, the coin
might be from 1736-1795. Emperor Kao Tsung. Of course I could be, and probably am, way off. :rolleyes:

I sure wish that yard was much bigger. The little space I did have was loaded with stuff. Unfortunately there
is a large deck covering one quarter of the yard. I'll bet there is stuff underneath it. :thinkingabout: lol

Have a great Memorial Day everyone. thumbsup01

What a yard Joe , go back i'll bet theres more there. i found a nice civil war calvery button in a yard here in town not much bigger than my 2 rooms here , and i hit that yard for 2 years before i found the button and it was only about 4 inches down

Very nice finds from that small yard again! Like Dave said, just keep going back, I'm sure there is more there. Nice bunch of indians and the token to add to the collection!

Great hunt, do you think the homeowner would let you dismantle the deck? 1913 Buff, great and of course you'll take the rosie. Congrats

That's a nice early Buffalo Nickel too!

But most importantly, now you can take that token to the bar and get a 5 cent beer! rofl
