Relics, coins and fun times

Hit a couple of spots earlier this week. First spot yielded some good finds in perfect dry, dry sandy soil including a brass buckle, NY transit Token, '74 IHP and my first Shield nickel. Second spot at an old church site gone by 1895 yielded nails, nails and finally a cool 1837 Banque of Montreal Half Penny (love that lil' beaver in the middle on the reverse). Owner's little children followed me around the whole time, little girl said she loves horse and snagged a bridal rosette w/horse motif from the hole and the little boy got a handful of clad from my grab bag, fun times.

That shield nickel is in outstanding shape for a digger and I see you managed to keep the 64 quarter separate from the clad and the young man.
Nice digs!

😁 that little boy dove right into my bag and pulled out a fistful of coins, yup, the silver was in the box by then. ☺️

Nice to have "helpers!" All the coins have great detail, better than usual for used and dug coins.

That Indian is tougher date. Congrats. Any indian in the 1870s is a winner 🏆.

Mild soil made for some great conditions on those coins.
