Went to a park I have been digging for a few weeks now and my first signal was a 92-93 on the AT Pro. I was surprised to see a large copper pop out of the ground and it only being 2-3 inches down was a shock. I was able to pull a date off the coin, it was 1839 and the coin was in great condition. Dug for about 2 hours and happened to find a nice silver plated buckle with a pat date of 1875. If anyone can help with the company name that would be great since I can't find anything about pYb anywhere.

Schweet finds
 

Nice finds must be a nice old park
 

Hello Masterdan407. Two impressive finds. Never seen a buckle quite like that. In 15-YRs of diggin' I have only got (2) LC's...both 1828. Good luck I hope you find many more. C9
 

congrats on the great finds!
 

Awesome buckle and nice coin :thumbsup:
 

congrats on getting your first large cent! I'll never forget the day I got mine,great feeling
 

Very nice LC find and very cool buckle, Congrats
 

Nice digs, the patina on that LC is great. Resist the urge to clean it!
I have, all I did was use a tooth pick to get the dirt off of the coin.
 

Way to show the way with the large cent! Mine will too come with time...Brad
