Large silver and first LARGE CENT!!!!

1942S Walking Liberty Half
1942, 1945 Mercury Dimes
1900, 1904 Indian Head Pennies
1919,1919,1921,1934,1942,1942,1945,1948,1949D,1955D Wheaties
6 Buffalo nickel

$3.52 in Clad

Broach with Pink Stone
Lion Silver ring Toy

Various other relics and whatsits.

Today was a beautiful day to be out in Central Iowa. I spent the day with my 4 year old daughter and found a variety of different coins and relics, what more can you ask for.

Hope everyone is getting a chance to find some neat things this spring,

HH,

Dave

P.S. Bruce, wish you could have been here today. I could have used the help diggin pull tabs!!!!

The reed has a "C" on it also. Bruce (DR. Ace) found one at the same site the night before and his is larger so I would guess his would have a different letter(Note) on it. His is about 1/2" longer than mine. I am guessing there are more where these were found. I also found a Harmonica reed not pictured. What type of instrument did these come out of?

Thanks and HH,

Dave

Thanks for the reply,

I've got a blister on each palm of my hands from my digger, So I would say it was a great day. I even had gloves on. I probably dug over 700 holes and my knees were killing me. I should have not worn shorts? Another lesson learned at this new hobby today. I don't hardly have any skin left on my knees either.

HH,

Dave

Nice collection of finds...I wonder when that "large cent" was made?

 

[crazyjarhead]

That is a large cent Wheatie......... OMG Awesome finds too

 

[daytondigger]

Nice finds, I've got some of those coaster sized coin copies. In fact the 1909-s is right here beside my computer with a soda sitting on top. I think I bought them at Cracker Barrel years ago.
