1834 Large, A Fatty, Newer silver, and Misc.

Greetings friends.
It has been a while so I thought I would post my recent finds.
I found the LC and Liberty quarter today and the rest over the last couple of weeks.
The harvest will start in a week or two and then the fun will begin.
I love that field hunting.
Best luck to all, Merf

Merf,
You got some great coins there...a SLQ with a clear date...wow.

I found a Roosevelt/Fairbanks 1904 watch fob a few weeks ago. I looked it up on e-Bay and one sold recently for $20. So they don't seem to be extremely valuable but I think they are really cool to find.

Well your recent finds and past few weeks finds sure would put a smile on just about everybodys face here on TNet. I like the Taft Watch fob, that will be a great display artifact and nice piece of history.............

Don

ADDED: I took a look at your 1834 and even though no Reverse photo has been posted, the Obverse was good enough in this instance to verify the variety of your find. It is a Newcomb 1 variety, there are 7 varieites of the 1834 Coronet Large Cent.

What I considered to be diagnostic for identifying the variety, it appears to be the only one of the 7 varieties that the 10th star point to the center of the hairbun. The other varities all point to some portion of the upper part of the hair bun.

MERF!!!!!!! Whats up buddy?? Glad to see that you're getting out bud. I see you got a largie in there (as usual) you're my hero buddy.

I had a couple cold ones while watching college football last night and I realize now that I tend to overuse the word "buddy" after tipping a few. I'll try to cut back on that in the future.

GREAT finds Merf !!

Must say I like the Taft / Sherman fob the most with the 1834 a close 2nd , followed by the 1927 with the fine detail and intact date !!

The SAC pin is cool too ! Kinda reminded me of that old Jimmy Stewart movie Stratigic Air Command. Gotta see it

I did 8 years in working on F4-E's

Congrats on those NICE finds !!
