These are two of my best finds!The most rare coin I have ever found is the 1794 flowing hair half dime.They only made about 7,769 of them.My favorite relic find is what I believe to be a confederate side knife,but I think it goes back farther in history,may have been handed down from a earlier century?Or maybe simply just lost earlier?001.JPG

That Riflemens button is amazing!Very scarce button.
 

oh you had to ask *L* Well this is a privately minted clay pipe token, so rare I cannot find any other copies in existence. Someone from England wanted to buy it but I said no thank you. :)

1809 Liberty cap dime - possibly a $900 coin.
