Indians, Barbers, Mercs and more!

[West Jersey Detecting]

This time of year I have to change the type of detecting that I do. I Can't get to most of the spots that give up the big coppers, so I hit my "B" sites. Unfortunately I damaged my camera, so I only have scans of the coins I found. I also found a lot of nice relics, but they are too big to scan.

The highlights of the week were the 1865 Indian Head Penny which has a 90 degree rotated die, and the Liberty Head "V" Nickel, which was actually an eyeball find! I saw what looked like a shotgun shell in the middle of the dirt road, and when I got closer I saw the "V" staring up at me!

I also found some flat buttons, many old spoons, another 1938 Metal Master bus (identical to one I found last year!), a silver men's ring and various other artifacts.







Thanks for looking!
Neil

Nice haul of coins! I have yet to find a Barber Dime in three years of detecting.
Seems weird not to see a Large Cent in your mix. Keep up the good finds
