Finds from 2009

[Deerhunter24]

Wasn't an awesome year, but hey...still had lots of fun.

I usually don't find that many coins because I hunt places that are older, so usually I manage to scrounge up a few older coins.

I totalled the following:

40 hunts

967 Total Coins

846 Clad Coin for a value of $57.90

24 Canadian Pennies

97 Good Finds: I classify these as wheat pennies or better.

These 97 coins break down into the following:

74 Wheat Pennies including a 1911, 1914, 1915D, 1916, 1917 (2), 1918.

7 Silver Coins (5 mercs, 1 rosie, 1 war nickel)

11 Indianheads (67, 80, 85, 89, 93, 99, 00, 01, 04, 05, and an unknown)

Others were:


1781 North American Token (Listed in Yeomans Red Book)
---This was down about 9 inches and by far one of my cooler finds. My 3rd 1700's coin.



1863 Civil War Token (Yankee Smith Saloon; Detroit, MI)
1910 V-Nickel
1917 Canadian Large Cent
1920 Buffalo Nickel


For some reason I'm having problems posting the other pics, but I'll figure it out and post the Silver and Injuns.

Here are a few more pics.


I apologize if most of the Indianheads are unlegible. I dont really clean my good coins. Still hoping that one day they'll make a full proof system for cleaning that won't damage coins or degrade their value.

The Yankee Smith Saloon Token says...No. 1 Michigan Ave Detroit, MI

The lone wheat penny pictured is a 1914.
