2019 Wrap Up

[Lost Signal]

2019 was my first year detecting. Had a great time with mbcuce and awdaw. I guess my most interesting find was a Clement IX 1/2 baiocco. It's a copper coin, that was minted by the Papal States between 1667-1669. Oddly enough, I found a good number of coppers and no Spanish silver, while using the same make and model machine as mbcuce, who found 7. But, I found two coins from the 1600's. The other was a William III.

I haven't gotten around to making displays, so I cobbled together some photos to show some of my better finds. Altogether, I probably dug 200 flat buttons, and a lot of horse tack, and the usual stuff.

Anyway, thanks to everyone for the feedback and for sharing finds in 2019.
