Capped bust half dime, 1837 hard times token and William III halfpenny!

[rsilva02667]

This spot keep producing awesome coins and relics!! I found my first capped bust silver! An 1832 half dime!! I was sooo pumped when I saw it laying in the sand! Also found this cool 1837 anti Andrew Jackson hard times token "jackass running". Also found another William III halfpenny and an awesome cuff link!! Has anybody seen one like it before?


Thanks for looking! Happy hunting!

Great finds! Love that Jack Ass token! The cufflink is interesting. The open work bulb looks period, but I've never seen an 18th century with that bar stop on the opposite end.

great looking finds. Capped bust coins are hard to find - congratulations. I think that I found a similar button to your cuff link at one of my early 1800's sites. Mine didn't have the keeper on it but still had a lot of gold guilt. Here is a picture of mine:

A good variety there, although the coin does not look like a William III, more likely George III.

I've already pulled a couple William III out of this site and it seems to match my other coins. I'm going by the ribbon in the hair

Cool button! I wonder of this cuff link was gold guilt

This site has been sooo much fun! It surprises me every time! This hunt today was only for about an hour!

Yes based on the nape of the neck (in your new photo) I agree that it's a William III. Very nice set of finds!

 

[rsilva02667]

The 5c on the half dime, and some of the letters are double struck. And I notice a die error in the S of states. Does this add to the value at all?

absolutely love that capped bust!!, great find!

 

[Gridwalker306]

That capped bust is pretty crazy! Very awesome finds man.

 

[rsilva02667]

Thanks guys! I couldn't believe the condition it's in! Most of the silver I find on the beach is black!

What should I do to the half dime and HTT to preserve them? Just a good soak in distiller water to get rid of the salt?
