Welcome to TreasureNet! Very nice finds. I would very happy too bringing those home.
 

Thanks Garebel :) The 1/2 öre is really one of my dream coins... Too bad these old coppers get in so rough shape after 400 ish years in the dirt.
 

Welcome to Treasure Net !!
As I understand it, a 'stig' was equal to 12 barrels of coal.
Can that be correct for this token?

Welcome to Tnet.

Oh yeah. I've been hammering this spot at least 5 times now and the copper coins keep popping up. This is the best spot i've ever hunted in. And its a "virgin" spot for sure. Only me and My friends have permission there in the entire province.

Thank you so much everyone, for the replies :) I'll make another post after tomorrow finds.
