Got out with some buddies in MI and bagged some oldies!!

Always fun to hunt with buddies--especially when these types of coins are popping out!!!!

The Silver 3-Cent is my first and was a kick when I saw it in the clod!

Nice 3 cent piece Ron! Congrats!
 
That's a nice three center and it looks like there is two dates on it. Looks like a 7 or 1 in there under the 3.
Nothing in the book like it or am I just seeing things.

great haul!!! congrats!! MR TUFF
 
That silver 3 cent is about the coolest coin I've seen. I have to vote banner since I have never seen a coin like this before. :notworthy:

I found a nice 3 cent this season also! But it was only an 1869, close to the time this area was settled. HH

Thanks for all the nice comments and even a banner vote in there!! ;D

All these coins were found in Michigan. Mostly 1850 sites. The sites we hunt are now just fields with a few indicators letting you know where the homestead once was.

This hunt was over a couple days.

Coins found:

3 Large Cents
3 half dimes
1 3-cent silver
1896 O barber dime (key date)
several Indians and early wheats
V nickel
1916 Walker
Flying Eagle Cent
2-3 Military buttons
tons of doo-dads and whatchamacallits!
