Had a amazing day today. Detected for 8 hours at a sight my wife secured for me. Never saw so many wheat cents at one site in my life. The place was a old inn that was now a house. Got 80 wheat cents. Yikes. lol. Got 9 silver dimes. Including one 1915 barber and a 1916 merc with a mint mark that I can't tell if it's a d or s cause it's cut off. I can only see the top line of it. One silver quarter. A buffalo nickel 2 indian heads. A 1894 something coin? A lead soldier. Some tootsie toys. And some other stuff. Some type if button maybe. I wrote what it says in the paper towel. If anyone knows anything. Also some type of bullet with a rifling to it. Also three small pocket spills. Did 40% of the site going back next week.

Great day....looks like you owe your wife one.....I know your bullet is a shot gun slug and I think your 1894 coin is an "Austrian 2 heller".

Here is the picture of the 1916 dime from yesterday's hunt let me know what you think. I think it's a S cause I don't see the little spike off the back of the top what do you think.

Incredible hunt. Congrats on a day that would make anyone proud. The projectile is no doubt a "Foster type slug" made by nearly all manufacturers of shotgun ammo with a few variations from each. :icon_thumleft:
