three centuries of silver, couple more guns, and a beer

cheffer · May 3, 2009

Here are some finds from the last three weeks. Found two new spots and hit one old spot.

Newer silver from the parking lots, plus about $13.00 in clad...

Some nice dates on the Indians...

Nothing like the other guns I found http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,231333.0.html ....

Beautiful old beer bottle from a local brewery (found it only because it still had the metal stopper in it)...

Nice Large Cent, in good shape too...

Lovely semi-key date Barber quarter...

And her two little sisters (V nickel was stuck to the left one)...

Awesome to see this come out. My first 2 reales...

Beautiful old silver ring..

I've had a great couple weeks, lot of digging and some fantastic finds. Black flies out in force today though, so the real sweet season is over.

Hey Hogge,
Thanks for the comments, I found the reale, barbers, bottle, ring and spoon in Lanesborough. Tooling around looking for fields and flat woods to poke around in. This area is open land managed by BNRC, which I've gotten permission to hunt. I'd be happy to share this spot with you if you take me to your sweet spots in Peru and Hinsdale! I've been watching your finds and you've definitely got the luck.
Thanks again,
Steve

I just had to jump in on this post and say way to go!. You've got a great site going, no doubt you'll find alot more. The spanish silver is on my wish list bigtime. As for the silver ring, to me, it almost looks like it was made from a silver coin?. Is their any marks or anything on the inside part of the ring?.

James.
