ok first off let me say i dont have a digicam so i cant post pics yet but THIS is a must read!!... i am new to TreasureNet and this is my first season Metal Detecting.. My recent finds have been nothing amazing. A couple Merc Dimes 1923/1935, silver quarter 1957, Buffalo nickel 1936, Wheatey 1949 along with some other misc finds.
Now for the 1800s pocket spill story.
i was recently on vacation and havent shaved in a while, once i got home i couldnt wait to shave but i have some ingrown hairs on my neck.. i figured i get out a sewing needle and pluck the suckers out. i recall a strange brass looking tin container near the microwave in my mothers kitchen and thought maybe there would be sewing needles in it. i opened it up and HOLY COW!!! 13 varies coins from the 1800s came pouring out!! i couldnt believe it! i had seen this brass container sitting there for months maybe a year! needless to say i was in AWE!! Here is a list of what was in it.
-1857 flying eagle cent
-1825 liberty head large cent
-1899 victoria one penny large
-1875 victoria 3 cent
-1881 2 1/5 cent silver from columbia
-1909 canadian edward 1 cent
-1912 canadian georgivs 1 cent
- and about 5 other coins from late 1800s that seem to be russian or of some slovic country..
any ideas on what these coins might be worth?
im still in shock..
i hope to have pics up soon.
HH!!!!!
