Did a all day hunt around a abandoned 1800's house the other day.
The area was fairly overgrown and loaded with junk and rusty iron.
Took me 17 years to find my first Barber Half - then I find this one only 6 months later :tongue3:

Large Cent - 1838 - (had to clean this coin - very encrusted - found it in a bed of rusty nails).
Barber Dime - 1903 - (no mint mark)
Barber Half Dollar - 1911 - (no mint mark)
Indian Cents - 1882 - 1902
Wheat Cents - ( 9 ) - 1911 to 1945

Token - Palmolive - Peet Soap Company - (Palmolive was only in business with the "Peet" Co. from 1926 to 1928)
I've found four or five of these Tokens before - some are made of Copper / Bronze and some are made of Aluminum like this one.

Congratulations the half’s are had to come by. Thanks for sharing
 
Congrats :notworthy:. Silver half is still on my bucket list :icon_thumleft:
There so large there pretty hard to loose.
As mentioned before, I think in the colder parts of the country a good percentage of them could have been dropped when there was snow was on the ground.

Some very nice coins Mr. E-Trac! Congrats on a great hunt.
 
Now that's an impressive haul ! Sure beats the 6 Wheats and 1 Merc I pulled this morning.
If I found a Merc and six Wheat's I'd call it a good day.
What I found on this hunt doesn't happen very often.
I don't ask for much - if I find one Silver or any 1800's dated coin - it was a good day.
 
Incredible! Congrats & thanks for sharing. It’s hot 🥵 n Nashville.
It's a 95 degrees and very humid here too.
If you want to go on a hunt around here - you better get out very early !
