Real nice finds there. I'm guessing you're from California given the Chinese finds or am I wrong here? Nice stuff wherever it came from. Keep it up. Just getting into this stuff seriously myself so I'm still looking for good spots.

No on the California guess.....Upstate NY...and don't ask me how this coin got into my Fathers yard!!
