Like the title says, I spent 1.5 hours at the abandoned house that was built in 1890. The owner thinks there was an older foundation there as well, and I have to agree with him. These are the keepers:
1812 half penny
1811-1813 Field Marshall Wellington token (large leaf, not date variety)
1882 Vicky LC
Navy cuff button...maybe 1812ish
Took video, but my video software crashed. I'll get the video up eventually.

***This hunt actually took place a week ago. Just posting it now *****










Also found this Evans Roller Bearing lighter 1925-1934 on a hunt that same week

nice place & Finds !
 

Good condition on the tokens.
Yeah, nice looking place.
Probably worth a couple more hours there.
 

I love that token! I'd hunt that spot until I got sick of swinging at no targets.
 

Hey there DOC, you got some nice coins and the lighter is really neat also.vanzutphen
 

Thanks guys. I'm going back on Wednesday if everything works out. Fingers crossed!
 

Sweet finds. An 1880's coin out west here is a whoop-de-doo find. And you boys back east likely yawn at that stuff, lol.
 

I don't think we would yawn at it lol. We are blessed with colonial settlements, and if you're lucky, french settlements. The old stuff turns up in the weirdest places though. I know of hammered silver found in BC, for example. You just never know!
 

Great finds!...Im still waiting to top my oldest coin ......1889 :BangHead:
 

Thanks again folks :thumbsup:
 

NICE DIGS--The lighter is cool !
 

I'm liking that old button. Very nice!

Great job on coins and lighter too.

Steve
 

Thanks Steve. I originally thought 1812ish, but someone thought maybe a little later. It's my first OLD military /navy button, so I'm a little partial to it :laughing7:
 

Really nice finds!
 

Nice finds:thumbsup: love that lighter:rocks:
