I'm in Pennsylvania us

Nice finds. That copper looks like a kglll or a connecticut. Hope someone can help with the other coin

Copper looks to be a George III Irish halfpenny - young head 1766 or 1769. 2nd is above my pay grade... but very interesting!

very interesting, cool finds

 

[Auriemma]

Nice! Where in PA are you from?

 

[screwynewy]

very interesting bronze/gold item you dug. Looks handmade like it could be Native American. You try to get some clearer pictures of both side of it and post it in the "What's It" forum.

edit: Looks like a deer or horse on one side and fish on the other. It's either a colonial era token or a one of a kind Native American relic

South central. 30 min from chambersburg

 

[charr45]

Great idea. I'll post new pics in that thread

Whatever that gold colored coin is it's really cool. Hope it's a one of a kind native American artifact. That would be phenomenal.

the 2nd object looks like 2 fish or whales possibly,very interesting whatever it is.looks native,but everything does to me

I'm VERY skeptical when it comes to gold being found in here. Especially gold coins. That coin should be very heavy. By the looks of it, it could be real, and something very special. Never seen anything like it. Hogge

Sorry, doesn't look gold to me, I think its meant to be a copy of a very ancient Jewish (maybe) coin.

 

[charr45]

Thanks for all the replies I don't have a scale but I'll show more Pics. Whatever it is sure is a cool find. I'll take it to a jeweler sometime here soon and I'll let u guys know what they say.

Possible coin from Pandyan Dynasty - Celyon (Sri Lanka) Ceylon Coin Web: coins & currency of Ceylon Pandyan. Two fish/Bull motif is found on copper coinage of this era.

This is fascinating me. Really curious how this turns out. Was it an old house you were hunting? The two fish are interesting. The above post about the Ceylon coins, as well as this Phoenician coin..Two Tunny Fish | Ancient Coins Online
