1798 Large Cent, 1903 Barber Half and More

[Bubba65]

Hello All,

I was detecting the house where I dug the two 1700's counterfeit coppers. When the neighbor whose family has owned or ran the farm for many many years, came over to see Me. He is also someone I graduated high school with and so we got talking about life in general. Sometime in the conversation he said he had to some work on an old farm house his family owns a couple towns over. Well I ask for permission and it was granted he said others have asked to detect there and he said no. Well I went to the house and all I can say is it is old and lots and lots of area to detect. I detected a very small area and in the 3 hours dug up a 1798 large cent, 1903 barber half dollar, 1887 Indian head penny, 1944 mercury dime, 1943 Washington quarter,some nice buttons, 12 wheat penny's, and about 80 cents in clad, along with a dog figurine, and some kind of key turning thing. I am going back tomorrow since I have the day off. Sorry for the long post hope everyone did well.

Thanks for looking,

Bubba65

Those are some nice digs, Bubba, especially the button and the 1798 LC. I dug a nice one (S-181) a few months back.

I expect to see some more great finds from you in the near future.
