Hey Everyone,

Hope everyone is getting out and doing what they love to do. I've had ample opportunities to get out but I made the best of them.

These finds represent one Saturday and 2 Sunday hunts over the past 2 weeks or so. For a total of around 12 hrs in the field.

I have a good feeling that I just scratched the surface of this area. I expect alot more good finds from here in the future.

I'm not going to get into how each coin was recovered. But Saturday was the big day for the most part.

I decided to see if Lance my brother wanted to get out with me. We recovered over 30 old coins together in about 4 hrs. All old dating before the 50's.

The high lights for the day included Lance finding a hole with a seated dime and a barber dime in the same hole. Second seated coin in 2 weeks to come out of the area.

Although that was going to be tough to match I scored later in the day a barber quarter and merc dime in the same hole. Man I love this hobby.

I ended up with 18 old coins and a old gold ring. Lance had a healthy 13 old coins. We had a good time that day.

The rest of the items were found on 2 other outings. One by myself and one with Lance.

I will write a break down on all the finds. Feel free to coment on things and give suggestions to what items are. No relics again this time.

There were a ton of them. Just to much time and space to get them up. Hope you all like the pics and finds.

19 Wheat Cents
4 Indian Heads - 1906 1864 1904 1896
3 V- Nickles - 1891 1904 1911
2 mercs 1916 1937
1 1914 Barber Quarter
1 1940 Jefferson
1 Marry Dressler Popsicle Token
1 Unknown Coin/Medal made of lead and destroyed by me in the recovery process. Coin was deep and the grounds are really dry.

1 Half a sterling spoon or fork handle. Possibly a knife.
1 Nice Old Railroad Baggage Tag I think. Says E.S.H 46 Sagerstown P.A.

1 Old 9ct gold and silver ring with 2 out of three stones still in the ring.

1 24kt gold plate lip stick tube. 24 Kt Gold............

Hope you all like the finds and enjoy the pics and write up.

Good luck to all,

HH Jeremy

Doesn't surprise me Jeremy.....Hate to see anything less.Excellent dig's!!!!!
 
Really nice spot you found, Congrats on all of those cool finds, and keep em coming!
 
Thanks alot everyone,

I know there is still more excitement at this place. I've already got seated coins a barber half. A barber quarter. Various date indians v-nickles and a bunch of wheats.

I even got the first gold ring. Lance found a really nice silver ring sunday while out. It had a huge diamond like stone in the center. Had a bunch of smaller one's off to the side of it.

It looked to be from the 20's or 30's. His heart skipped a beat for a moment. We thought it was white gold at first. But the turned out to be sterling.

The area is grown in alot. So I know in the fall more finds will come to. I had another really good spot. But rd construction is making it hard for me to get there.

Can't wait to get back out this weekend and see what else I can come up with.

Thanks again everyone for looking and comenting.

Thanks Sherman,

Can't wait to get back out there this weekend. I'm back out at 7:00 a.m for hunts.

When I got a really good spot going on. I'll be up as early as my body will let me. I dragged all last weekend hunting. But the coins kept me going.

Thanks alot MJ,

I'll be back with more soon

Nice silver, and two in the same hole! Keep up the good digging.
 
That is some serious kickbutt stuff Jer. Any clue as to what kind of metal those stones are set in and are those miners cut diamonds? I mean it IS a 24 carat gold ring so I would assume the stones would something of good value as well.

Superb job on those finds!
