Nice "o" dime brother!

The bullets are post-1880s, as they have cannelures inside the rings.

Best of luck to you and FMERG.

Great finds! I believe your "Chinese coin" is an item used in I Ching fortune telling, not actual currency. Someone more familiar can confirm or correct that, but I think it's what it is.

The Chinese cash coin is from 1735-1796. Awesome coins. I never find that much stuff,

Awesome barber dime also, I have only ever found one, in my first week of detecting. I know all of the Ch'ing dynasty coins by memory now, but here is where I learned each type from.

coins of china, the Ch'ing Dynasty

the feedback on the China coin is proof TNET is inhabited by some true scholars & dudes who know a bunch about a bunch
hope it be worthiness of the time it took to dig that from the roots & rocks at 4 inches--- one of the deepest hits of the hunt
