A silver thimble and 5 large coppers.-New pics added-Tumbled

[Merf]

Whoopy---I got the silver monkey off my back.
Hard to believe but I found the thimble first and then the five LCs . I can't read the dates on any of them yet but hope they will clean up. It was a five hour hunt.
It is an old farmstead site from the mid 1800s. I also found the IH with some local wildlife included in the pic. I will be smiling all weekend My best hunt for sure.
Thanks for looking and best luck to all. Merf

Great job Merf!
Your tumbling did the trick and doesn't appear to have caused any ill effects. I ordered the big red one a few days ago with dual barrels. Is that by chance the one you use? Also, do you use aquarium gravel?

You are one lucky dude Mr. Merf; but you work hard for every ounce!

very nice large cents and silver thimble! That rock tumbler turns the coins out in really nice condition after you leave them in there for awhile!

Major congrats to you for getting the silver monkey off your back. That is one really nice thimble.
The 5 Coppas aren't bad either. Wow!!! Amazing!!

This is one hunt that's going to be hard to top, but it sure will be fun trying.

Great Job!!
