What a year, all I wanted was 50 silver with at least 1 barber and/or seated, I would've never expected to get a Spanish silver or a KG, my indian head count quietly creeped up on me as I was focused on that silver goal, now that the ground is frozen solid all I can do is patiently wait for a hopeful march thaw!, thanks for looking all year guys, good luck out there and hh!!!!
 

You had a great year. Hoping for a quick winter. So we can get back at it.

Looks like a spactacular year to me. Thanks for sharing and congrats on you years success. Very nice post.
 

Awesome season you had cjon lots of everything....:occasion14:
 

yep, pretty darn good year. you got a great variety of finds, making it hard to just like one thing so I like them all. a lot of just plain ole cool things and a lot of desirable things that many hope to find themselves. those make for both fun and exciting hunts, congrats
 

Thank you for the pictures as it's an easy one on the eyes to view, great groupings of finds. I find your statement on the IH pennies and how the count creeps up so true and it happens with so many different finds that at the end of the year when it all gets put together one can sit back and say "WOW!" it was a really good year out detecting.
 

Thanks alot guys, it was alot of fun, I sure hope 2015 is just as good if not better!
 

Yup Spanish, old coppers, foreign coins, nice relics. Great year indeed! Hope 2015 is even better
 

Impressive year-end roundup! :thumbsup:

Thanks but I don't think it's real, it has green in the center of the band which I think is the underlying metal that was gold plated over
 

Vermile overlay possibly, dag it sure looks good...friend of mine found one just like on the eastern shore of Maryland, must have been the scam of the day..you can see his is separated also.

An amazing array of finds, cjon. Thanks so much for posting it all. Good luck in 2015.
BTW, I don't think we are all that far apart geographically. Maybe sometime this year we could meet up?
