Re: CELLAR HOLES*BIG SILVER*CW BUTTON & A LARGE CENT

There could be more in that area. During the CW after the clothes were worn so long the wool would get bug infested and they would put the clothes in piles and burn them after the change to new. I live in the Jeffersonville , IN area and am looking for a hunt friend. Ted

Re: CELLAR HOLES*BIG SILVER*CW BUTTON & A LARGE CENT

Great looking 1915-D Barber Half Dave! :notworthy:

Man that's one beautiful looking coin! :o

The 1859 Canadian LC is nice . . . but American Silver is definitely better man! :laughing7:

Re: CELLAR HOLES*BIG SILVER*CW BUTTON & A LARGE CENT

:o I am blown away! That 59 Canada cent is a good one. The Canada cents were "large" right up to the twenties or so. That Canada cent, mintage wise, is scarce compared to most of the US large cents. Great hunt HEAVYMETALNUT. :icon_thumleft:

Re: CELLAR HOLES*BIG SILVER*CW BUTTON & A LARGE CENT

HEAVYMETALNUT, my statement was incorrect, they minted alot of the 1859, the 1858 is the rare on with about a half million struck. Still, that is a nice oldie, good details too.

Re: CELLAR HOLES*BIG SILVER*CW BUTTON & A LARGE CENT

nice Denver silver there. she's held up well.
i'm a stickler, but I'd say no for counting that copper
as a largie, only in that the analogous copper in the states
would have been small at that point.
think of it instead as a fatty IH! :icon_thumright:
or something like that...

Ooh, baby. That's a nice Vicky! Most of the ones I have found in my part of the woods were toasted.
