Thanks Garebel :) The 1/2 öre is really one of my dream coins... Too bad these old coppers get in so rough shape after 400 ish years in the dirt.

Welcome to Treasure Net !!
As I understand it, a 'stig' was equal to 12 barrels of coal.
Can that be correct for this token?
Don...
Yes, that is correct :) The person who dropped this token had to freeze for a while :)

Welcome to Tnet.

Oh yeah. I've been hammering this spot at least 5 times now and the copper coins keep popping up. This is the best spot i've ever hunted in. And its a "virgin" spot for sure. Only me and My friends have permission there in the entire province.
