Great silvers man.

Those are really old for the states. Ny has alot of old history. We are fortunate to be in the NE. I live in pittsburgh pa and it is very old here also. I just found out my dad's sister owns a large parcel of land with lake and she told my dad it is the oldest land in NY. It was occupied by indians etc.

I've never been to NY. I've been to California and every where else but not to NY. I plan on making a trip later in the summer.

Awesome coins, Deep!

I cringed, though, when he showed what book you are using to do your research. I hope it doesn't result in claim jumpers raiding your area.

The town of Southampton may take issue to your claim about Southold being the oldest town.

Congrats on your banner find!

Now that is some find in the States. You're making us proud here by actually finding coins which could be classified as "sorta old" over in England!

You've found a great site. I hope to see more finds like these. And they do deserve the banner.

Southold and Southampton are the 2 oldest towns on the Fork,s only difference is the ships land here first because of the bay harbor the ocean side was to rough of a landing Peconic bay lays between both with Shelter Island right in the middle my new Sov.GT is going to get a good work out this summer at all those beaches lol thanks for the congrats .Dd60

Naaa the historic posse is always on patrol out here there is one way in and one way out of the northfork unless they good swimmers ? they see a new face they watch, besides that book was published in the fork if someone sneeze,s out here the whole town knows it ,its only 33 miles by 2 miles wide and 1 highway and if the posse dont get them the ticks will Dd60

Thanks there is a connection between those coins and the earliest people sailing over here from Conn. i still say they were Dutch i don't think there can be any earlier coins except maybe very late 1590,s or is there ? ill keep hunting Thanks again for the Congrats Dd60

Thanks i had to soak them in lemon juice to get the dark color off they came out nice i did not want to over do it the soil was very dark and soft once the top was broke off i could use my hands to dig the woods out here has a deep layer of i guess i could say mulch plus there was a lot of old oyster shells mixed in which i think scratched the coins over time the coins were just over 6 inches deep Jim
