Fantastic old silver there! Are you certain that the copper is a half cent? Almost looks like a colonial European copper, with the crown and a wreath.

Nice pillars and globes real. They are about as rare as a cob coming out of the ground.

Congrats on some very nice finds!
I'm convinced harmonicas were as common in the 1800s as cell phones are now.....

Nice finds. Thats a Scottish Bawbee from the mid/late 1670s. I found one a couple seasons ago. Pretty tough find in the Americas. Mine came from the Eastern Shore of Maryland as well. The coin pictured is not my find. Mine isn;t much better.
