I gathered up most of my good coin finds for the year as accurately as i could. This year was very good to me adding some firsts to my collection. My first capped bust half, First morgan, First shield nickel. I also dug up a beautiful generals staff button worn by a union officer with most all of the gilt still on it. I can only wish next year proves to be as fun as this one was.

You had a super year John. I have been at this for 30 years and have never found a bust half, a morgon dollar or a bust anything for that matter. Great stuff. Your the man. Mike.

Great finds! Did you find the bust in Kansas?...Steve
Yes, it was actually one of my first finds of the year. I was hunting a field that used to be a fairground and dug that coin along with a seated dime, a shield nickel and a barber dime on the first day. 8)

Congrats on that huge pile of silver and other good coins! If I counted correctly, we both have 49 silver, but your silver is way bigger than mine! You've kept busy digging in 2007! WTG bro.
