The large cent was like 2 inches down..The silver was like 7inches and came in all broke up..Now to the good part..Or not so good... T he FUGIO says copy on it....Man I wanted t o throw that sucker across the field....lol..Just like cjon455 on Sunday with his perfect king george....I was with treblehunter and a nother guy..His grandson found this huge gold ring...All in all it was a good 2hour hunt for me..

Thats not a fugio copy its a copy of a continental dollar. Sweet finds! A shame that puppy wasnt the real deal. You'd have a little $$$ there if it were. The fugios were only minted in 1787. I remember having that same coin (a copy also of course) in my coin collection as a kid.

Was this the same place you and the guys hunted Sunday?
Beautiful LC and nice silver. Looks like it was carried quite awhile before being lost.

 

[leddel]

what a heart breaker to find out the continental dollar is a copy but you made some great finds still. congrats

You have been on fire lately. Nice finds. Can't help ya with the Spanish without more detail but I'm sure some one who finds a lot of them can.

No problem. Didn't mean to sound like I was correcting you.. I re-read my post and it kind of sounded that way to me. Just wanted to help with an ID, and once again, congrats on the finds. I'd be anxious to get back to that spot if I were you.

Awesome to see you get that Spanish buddy. I remember pulling countless coppers and thinking I would never get one and suddenly I had 3 of em. Knocking one off the list is awesome. I found my first military button yesterday. They all feel great. You will find many more my friend

WOW Vino... awesome coins. You and you posse have found some the nicest coins lately. Congrats on the exceptional finds.

The ring looks like it has the S&H Green Stamps logo on it... Could that be true?

Ur a exelent hunter...It always pours for you!!!!

In the 60s my grandmother collected them to redeem for prizes (junk). The more you purchased at the grocery store... the more stamps you got. You pasted them in a book, when you filled enough books... you exchanged them for gifts.

I bet that ring was given to an employee of S&H....

PS: If I was able to ID something for you... then it is a red letter day for ME!
