A good couple of days! 1853 Half dime!! and a few relics!

[Coastie59]

With the beaches still sanded in, my grandson and I have been doing some relic/coin hunting. We were fortunate to dig a 1853 half dime, a toasty largie, a 1902 Barber, a 1902 injun and a 1924 merc! Thats Caleb after pulling the Barber quarter out of the hole! We were also glad to run into a nice Eagle I cuff button, and some assorted lead and brass. The small gold looking thingy tested good at 14k, my guess maybe part of a mechanical pencil?? Any guesses? Thx for lookin and I hope everyone has a great holiday!!!

That's one of the best hunts I have seen posted in a long time without a banner find. You found a little something for everyone! Congrats!

Nice alternative hunt. Finds are good and plenty. Caleb appears to be a good hunting partner.

Incredible assortment of finds there ! That's got to be one of the nicer half dimes we've seen here in a while .

 

[Cross Potent]

A real nice coin you have there. You had a fantastic hunt!

 

[treblehunter]

It doesn't get much better than that, great finds! You have a killer site there, the half dime is in great shape.

Wow, what a terrific early site you have there. That's one of the finest dug half dimes I recall seeing here. Judging by the wear on the matron head LC, I'll bet the half dime was lost first. BTW, Caleb looks to having a great time with you!
