Silver coins,Indian,Wheats,25 coins

[Roger Mn.]

I always think this place is cleaned out. I have been there over ten times this year and finely got something good.
I don't know what most of these coins are so I could use some help.
I was at Quarry Hill Park and I think it is over 250 acres. The small coins were 2 inches deep and the larger ones were 3 to 4 inches deep.
I was there 5 hours digging everything and thought when will it end. I was getting tired out.

oy that last pic gave me the chills, it looks like snow in the background.

Can't help with any ID's aside from the US coinage but it sure is a strange mix of nationalities. Almost if someone had lost a collection there.

Cool finds

Were it not for the pennies, I would have guessed you were in another country! Where are you located? I would call that a fantastic day on number of coins alone, not to mention the incredible variety!! I find that mix to be most interesting.

Thanks for sharing the pics!! Always good to see there is hope for me.

This place looks like a United Nations prison camp, how in the world could there be that many coins from so many different countries? This place has got to be a very interesting story!

I was going to say I recognize that polish dollar coin (my girl friends grandfather passed and that was one of the coins in his possession.) very cool finds from the US....outstanding work- keep hitting that place.

 

[jewelerguy]

very odd to find so many foreign coins. I'll bet that was a fun dig!

top right, 50 francs, France, aluminum bronze
lower right, France 10 centimes, copper nickel

3rd set
Top left, Austria, 10 Groschen, aluminum
lower left, Poland, 1 Grosz, Bronze
upper right, unknown, possibly a locally issued token, obviuosly aluminum, references to Ville, commerce and industry would seem to indicate a French origin, although that clashes somewhat with a "cent" denomination
lower right, Greece, 10 lepta, single year of issue 1912 for this type, made of nickel

4th set
Top left 5 centavos, Honduras, copper nickel
