Hey Gang!

Another beautiful day here in Southcakalacky! I had a lot of fun today with some cool surprises!

I found this awesome Roman coin from some place called Copy! Not sure where that is.....but it's got to be far away!! It must be worth a fortune! I can hardly wait to sell it!

I found my heaviest to date honkin Man's silver ring! That was a very cool surprise. It didn't clean up as pretty as I wanted it to, but it's still nice to add to my growing collection.

The Presidential Dollar was another nice surprise. I've been finding quite a few of those lately. I'll take them all anyday!!

It sure does add up Matt! I can't tell you how many times I've needed a few dollars to get through the week and start cleaning and rolling those bad boys! It's such a nice benefit to our hobby ;D

That copy mint seems to be making more and more coins every year. But I bet it was still good for a few second rush! :thumbsup:
 
dats not a roman from "copy" italy -- you got a "real" fake made for the tourist "copy" of a spanish 1715 treasure fleet 8 reale coin -- that we all want to find a "reale" one of. :thumbsup:
 
You cant beat those tot lots you never know Nice finds :icon_thumleft: Dd60
 
Awesome finds Moon, you've become quite the detectorist! Just maybe "copy" was the mint makers name...........Salvador deLeone Copy. If you say it with an accent it sounds Spanish to me! :wink: :icon_thumleft:
 
You did good Cindy! And you never know, someday you just may find such a coin in what appears to be a "normal" place. Nice ring too :thumbsup: Glad you got out and had fun!
