Local park Large Cent + Church Largie, some silver coinage, and more

[Scrappy]

This is actually a combination of two hunts since I never get long periods to hunt. The first copper I found yesterday at my old 1670 church site. Man I love that place - here's the copper just out
Turned out to be what looks like a classic head 1816
I also scored two Roosies and a couple do-dads including a silver chain and cool pin.

Today's hunt was a quick 20 minutes at a local park. Figured I would score a few modern silver coins since all my colonial spots have dried up. I locked on a nice 12-45 and out pops a copper.

Turned out to be an 1830, which is pretty damn cool since the oldest coin I've pulled out of this park prior was a 1889 seated. Needless to say when you're going for modern silver and score a large cent it's a nice surprise. What a nasty afternoon to hunt

I scored a couple more goodies including a Washington q and an emerald ring.


The coppers were roach city but I don't mind. They look great in a big pile in my display with the clean ones on top

Keep on digging

I think the emeralds look more like Peridot...

Awesome digs... Thunder and lighting over me right now... Thats gotta mean spring is coming, right?!?!?!

 

[Loco-Digger]

Congrats on digging all those keepers. How deep were those LC's Steve? The oldest coin I pulled from a park was a 1907 Indian Head.

Padirtdigger is correct, I believe... peridot is the stone.

Very well done Scraps! Big coppers, jewelry and silver coins... yep, that's the stuff I like!

Best of luck to you, and I will see you in a few weeks!

Looks like you had a couple of nice hunts Steve. Nice job.

 

[doninbrewster]

Looks like you scored some nice finds. Although most are toasted when they come out of the ground around here it's great when you get that unexpected surprise. 2 LC's, a Barber dime, emerald ring and other goodies. I'd say you did quite well. Works for me.

Way to go Steve. I can see the wreath on the back of that copper so all is not lost on the details.
