Dang, nice collection of finds! What kind of site were you hunting?

Looks like you were in a swimming hole? Is it a dried up one or did you get wet? Nice finds, reminds me of my lake hunts.

Sweet finds, nice digs!

Awesome hunt

That hunt was above awesome. I have dug at least a dozen silver Catholic medals like those,but never a one made of gold.And I have probably dug a pocket full of non silver ones.

Your merc is a 1937.....not a 1921. Too bad, it would have been worth a few bucks if it was. Nice hunt!

I got a little wet, the water was ankle deep at most, I do wear my waders at this site often but not on this hunt. I always go when the tide is low.

It was a shoreline, activity there dates from the mid 1800's until the mid 20th century. The most common coins there are mostly 1920's-1940's, although there are older ones that have been in the water so long they are unrecognizable - the IHC from this hunt for example is nearly impossible to see any details, while the wheat cents are legible.
