Whoa, it’s been a while! The past months have been so busy, I haven’t had much time at all to go dig. And when I do I haven’t been finding much. Finally able to get out to an for an hour tonight which was nice. It’s a farm that is junky and rarely produces anything decent. I was happy to find a 1913 silver dime, only my 7th silver for the season so far. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1533355714.340739.jpg

Then I got a smokin’ signal which I was sure was probably junk. Man was I surprised to see that huge “coin” in the hole! I instantly thought Napoleon, but what the hell is it?

Got home and started googling and the only comparables I can find are from the 18th century, and they sell for big bucks! They are 135mm, the very same as the one I dug up. Anybody ever seen something like this? ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1533356740.183993.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1533356758.780259.jpg

Nice finds bud. That sucker is huge.

It is huge, and luckily it was upside down in the hole, so the couple scratches I gave it with my digger didn’t ruin the good side.
