1896 Nawlins mint. Nice find.

What detector do you use and what was the number on the screen? In the 80's?

 

[Dfxcobb]

AT Max...really i dont pay too much attention to number..not saying i dont use it...i pay more attention to the sound then i really do the numbers

Nice find. Not seeing the surrounding terrain, do you think that it was lost shortly after 1896? Can't focus on the pic, but what condition grade is it, how deep was it, details please on this history piece. Pic of obverse.

 

[Dfxcobb]

im not coin person so not sure about grade.. will send more pics. Found in a creek about 3in down
