:thumbsup: Just when I was about to give up on my 2 acre yard and im driving the wife nuts digging every night I find a 1941 merk dime before work. So far Ive found a 1905,1899 barber dimes and now this merk on other side of house Oh and a trade token. My theory is since my house was buily in 1957 that since I find old rotted away shot gun primers before the plastic in areas around dime finds that someone was hunting years ago, just a thought. Since i own the front 2 acres that is mowed I cant wait till the brush dies down in the fall and hit behind me there is a total of another 3 to 4 acres that is my nieghbors attached to me that I dont own. I am still working on pix always get a fault says to big or something. Dave

when you save your pic...save as 50% size and they will post. nice finds. keep hunting!
 

wish i could find some silver on my property, but this place wasnt built till the 70's and the oldest coins ive found reflect that fact.

I didnt expect to find things this old either , but being in a woods I think people over the years were in and out I am now a firm believer that like arrowheads there is so much in the ground just keep looking and swinging. Dave
 

Yeah...we gotta have those pics to go with the story, Dave! :D Maybe try loading them to 'paint' and shrink 'em? Sounds like a bunch of GREAT finds and a GREAT site to hunt! :thumbsup: You need to find an old map of the place..could have been something else there at one time?

Congrats on the finds! Nana :)

And remind the wife it could be worse... :P :D
 

Yea i still havent figured out how to find a map of our woods right now im going under the assumption that its random drops over years by people cutting wood or hunting in the woods who knows? dave
