Heart attack at the honey hole

[cti4sw]

Same site as the KGII & KGIII













It's a 1911 quarter Eagle, an 1804 plain 4 stemless half cent, and two more of those buttons - but these buttons have patterns. The first one I found didn't have a pattern. Also found 2 buckles, some clad, and a 1940s wheat cent.

Awesome Quarter Eagle! What depth did you find these at?

Gold coin was at 5-6". Half cent was deeper, maybe 8", under a clad dime.

Hey that's some pretty good luck though! Congrats!

Yeah it's definitely an 1804, it's in great shape and the date is very clear.

Long story short, old meetinghouse next to an older cemetery whose private owner has kept it open for public use. Hay fields around the chapel is where I keep finding this stuff so ol' Farmer Abraham & family must have had holes in their pockets and lots of loose clothing.

I'm gonna do this all summer and then make a shadowbox for the relics I find and present it to the local Mennonite Heritage Museum. Numismatically, I have found 2 colonial half pennies (KGII & KGIII), an 1804 DB half cent, 1911 gold quarter Eagle, and 2 wheats (1938 & 1946) for my troubles over the past 2 weeks. Unfortunately, such is my luck that when this place runs out, idk if it will ever hit me again :[
