Thought it was silver. .. .. .

Out in the woods again today, found a rock wall and lots of spider webs in my face. Man I hate spider webs in my face!

Searched near the wall for a while, area was quite trashy, then AT PRO squeaked around 80, and I dug up what I thought was my first foreign silver coin from 1934.

Looked it up online, it's Swiss made of copper and nickel.

Oh well. ..... still a cool find.

it's a nice find! hate spider webs? I usually de-web areas with a stick before I hunt them. Have some strange looking spiders in one area I hunt.

That would only make sense to clear them before I hunt.......... I never claimed to be the sharpest knife in the draw! LOL

Still a very nice coin, silver or no silver. I dug a 1948 french 5 francs that almost did flips over till i looked at it closer. French and aluminum.
