When It's not raining I'm out detecting, which means maybe twice a week! Will this rain ever stop? Anyway... Went for a couple hunts after I found the seated and found nothing. Then after the soil dried out a little I found this.

No marking on it, but it rang up as silver and it doesn't look plated.


Next I hit a spot I haven't been to in years. Pulled this out of the hole.

Next hunt I go to my honey hole. Find a spot with no metal and noise cancel/ground balance. Second swing I get a nice tone. Out pops a 1945P war nick! Then as I'm about to go home I get a high tone and pops this 1964 Rosey.

And yesterday I hit the spot where I found the 2 nice LC's and got a very weird tone. Numbers all over the place. But there was a high tone in there that kept showing up. I found this.

A coin purse! But I think this is newish and just has some old clad in it. I didn't even look in it. So I finish detecting and go home and turn the purse upside down and out pops a 1941 quarter! So now I'm excited!

Here's what was in it:
One 1941 P quarter.
No dimes ???
5 nickels all in the 1960's. 1965 is the oldest date.
10 memorial pennies 1959 to 1967.
9 Wheats: 1930, 1939, 1942, three 1944 one a D, 1946, 1947, and 1957.

25 coins in one hole!

So I figure this was lost in the late 60's early 70's. Pretty darn cool!

very cool find, probably not so cool to the little old lady that lost it but it is what it is.

Wow I dream of a coin purse all I've found are empty that's pretty good for 4 days. It's been raining so much every time I have a day off I prepare to go in the rain it can be fun Great post I'm sure it wouldn't get banner but on my side of the street it does. Tommy

Nice hunts, is the first a pin or pendant, pretty cool looking, nice dimes & WN, quite a haul on the change purse, not an everyday save, congrats on all & HH

Thanks! I had to detect one day, you know the feeling, but it was raining. I went anyway. What a muddy mess it was! I'm never doing that again! lol

Thanks! I just took a good look at it under the microscope. I can see very faint writing that says STERLING! It probably was a pin, a straight pin with no catch.

Nice coin haul. Congrats

Thank you!

First, congrats on the coin purse! It would be awesome to find something like that!
Second, not so fast on the little old lady. I work with a guy (in his late '40's) that carries one. He "claims" he doesn't like his change falling out of his pocket. W3 dude... Call it anyway you want. It's your pocket.
