Went out swingin' alongside Jmastny78. I dig up a clump with a reeded edge embedded in it. Hopin' for seated. Ask JM if he would like the honor of doing the reveal. He takes me up on it and gently removes one side of the clod from the coin. "What is it?" He responds..."I don't know. Wait...it's foreign."

A beautiful dime from our friends up north. I have never found a Canadian dime this old. So I have to consider this a "first".:headbang:

Dug up this slug. Was disappointed because it rang up perfectly as a nickel. Got it home and was able to make out a five under the light. It's there! I'll never get a date though.

Fake as a three dollar bill. Still makes your heart skip a beat when that jumps out of the hole covered in dirt.

080315Brooch.jpg

I'm guessin' a Victorian Brooch. And ??? The other piece has a nice design...not sure what it is though.

Awesome hunt tonight! I loved the reveal, now I understand the excitement behind them! You found some pretty cool things, I'm really digging the brooch/cameo and button-thingy! Good luck on your next trip out. Hope you hit the jackpot!

Sweet hunt!!

Love all your finds except maybe that junker, know that disappointment all too well. Lol

That Candadian dime is really cool!! I found a Candadian quarter (silver) last year and still wonder how it made it this far just to get lost.

Maybe you'll let me do the reveal when you find that first large cent.:laughing7: Speaking of...don't kill the messenger...but your coil came within 24" of that find last night...not sure it was totally accessible...but I guarantee you were within 2 feet of that first.
