Nice finds!

The distant future of coin hunting in this hobby looks pretty bleak !

You got that right. I guess at least they won't be digging up the zinc pennies because they will all have rotted by then. Who knows what they'll replace them with next that is even more worthless.

If there are any coins in the future they will probably be made out of Plastic !
Finding a 1982 or earlier Copper Lincoln Cent will be like us Wheat Cents today.

Yes. Electronic Currency will be next, after cash is completely eliminated.

So there won't be anything left to dig up at all. 😱

Well, car keys are disappearing, coins will soon and I’m seeing a lot of those “silicone/rubber wedding rings, so that leaves pull tabs, can slaw and nails. 💔

Yes, Large Cents are always a great find - I've been lucky enough to dig five so far this year.

Slowly a few small hunts turn into a respectable gathering of keepers-(even that zinc one.)

I have an old pint sealer that's filling up with them, just looked the other day and thought that's one ugly looking finds jar.
