New @ it and starting out Large!!

[froggy1967]

Hi everyone! Really love this site and finally figured out how to share my finds. Just started out my new Hobby in the spring and had a chance spend a week at my Mom and Dad's old farm in Ohio. Dad claims from history books in the area that it was settled in the early 1800's. Found quite a bit of junk but also some keepers. I found the Large cent out by the creek and my mom said she thought I one the lottery....needless to say I was a little exited The 1909 wheat was another great find, maybe you guys can help me figure out if it is a VDB or not.

Nice finds. Cant tell if its a V.D.B and it doesn't look like there is an S mintmark either.

VDB is at the very bottom on back where it's green right now.... hot peroxide will clean the green off but may take some detail with it..depends how corroded the penny is...

As long as its not an "s", I wouldnt get to excited. Congrats on the Large cent. I also love the buckle with the company initials and curious about the thing on the bottom right. 8)

Hey nice finds on the coins. That LC is really old. But...you took it from Ohio...lol Well guess it was on the family farm. Just teasing, love to find those old coins too. Go back there will be more. Rings can hid near old water faucets.

Thank You! The item on the bottom right is a brass padlock.

Welcome to the hobby, and congrats on the Largie! I bet there is more out there. As you get more experience you will be able to go back and work the same area for more goodies!

Welcome to T-net and congrats on some really nice coins and relics. Just take your time detecting that farm and once you become more proficient go over the areas you first detected at a later date.

Congrats WTG I started out pretty much the same way but gets you kind of spoiled slowing down a little for me now. Need to find some new places I guess.
