Found these yesterday. The Indian came up first. I could tell right away it wasn't gonna clean up very well. From what I can tell so far it looks like maybe a 18?7. It is toasted.. The second find was the 1839 half dime. It turned out to be a nice looking half dime but unfortunately it is a little bent. "It wasn't me I swear:) It must have got bent in its hayday. Maybe got ran over or something? The half reale is so worn out all I can make out is "pan. It must have passed through many many hands in its time. Also found a couple flat buttons and rivets. HH and have a good week everyone..joe IMG_0419 (2).JPG IMG_0414.JPG IMG_0425.JPG IMG_0425.JPG IMG_0423.JPG IMG_0423.JPG IMG_0428.JPG Sorry bout the extra pics. Still trying to figure out this new importing stuff...HH

Congrats on pulling some keepers. :occasion14: The half dime still eludes my coil. Bent or not, I'd take it.

DigIron2,

Good going on the half dime.....a little trick to straighten it out without damaging it....take a couple of small softwood board and use them as a sandwich for the coin and put it in a vise and tighten.

It'll be as good as new.

Regards + HH
