Great day in newly harrowed field!

[Rhody10]

Hi everyone first post with treasure net! Went to a way far end of a local field that was just turned over and found all these coins and relics in the same general area. First was the larger button with the floral pattern and then the rest just kept coming. My first 1858 flying eagle cent and not sure about the other coin with the crest with two lions I believe? And two really fused together some how but there's a little detail on the top one. Any help on ID would be greatly appreciated! Great site and HH!

Nice old finds! You have some quality pieces there. I'm not sure, but the coin with the crest and crown kind if looks like a French Sol. I'm viewing the pics on my phone so it's hard to tell.

 

[Rhody10]

Thanks, very pleased with recent at pro purchase I couldn't believe today, I'll look up the sol thanks very much

 

[RelicMedic]

Nevermind...I think it's the Netherlands /East Indies. Possibly 1700's. Need a good pic of the other side as well please.

Great finds and a great first post. Keep hitting that field. There's bound to be more there.

 

[Rhody10]

Yes tony definitely something I'll have to do some research; the Dutch East Indies is dead on for the front but I'm looking for a match to the back where I can make out "R" on the left and "G" or possibly c on right

 

[deepsecrets]

think you have a Dutch Colonial New York Penny or Half Penny - 1750's - 1780's

Excellent haul. That's a great first post and apparently, a great spot!!

Congrats.

 

[Rhody10]

Ok so think I've figured it out.. thanks relicmedic for the lead!! Defiantly a 1 Duit Gelderland Dutch/ East Indies coin and the back that I've found that matches the best to the few letters that are left is 1783.

I really like the fact that my first old cool coin is Dutch because I am half as well.

Thanks everyone for the help I'll have to hit that spot again

Nice buttons, and a unusual coin find. Both coins in good shape, I got a FE cent once but was in the very last stage of decay, and barely IDable.
Ox knob, yes I would say house site, and a lot of finds left there.
