1916 silver dime!

My husbands brothers wife went to pick up wood and found a 1876 walking liberty.
I look for meteorites... Thier worth more then gold.

They didn't make walkies until 1916.

Most valuable find 1914D Lincoln Cent. A rare key date for Lincoln cent but, I scratched (minor) it with my digger! My favorite find was a cool 1918 Walking Liberty Half....that gave me a charge!

I was given a 1876 " U.S." Trade Dollar back in 1969 while on R&R in Malasia .I kept it until 1980 when someone pilfered my home in Missouri ! That coin sure brought back some good memories! The value don't matter to me............ It was the memories !

Best coin find for me metal detecting was a 1876cc seated dime. I imagine it's worth 5 bucks!!!

Please respond to the poll above. Thanks.

You can also reply to this if you want, and tell us: What is it? Where'd you find it? Do you still have it?

1848 Large Cent. That appeared to have been made into a brothel token. Home owners wanted it. But they did buy me another 1848 large cent.
Found by their front door about 3 inches deep.

There are two, an 1860 S Seated Liberty quarter, and an 1854 $10 Gold Eagle. I have no pictures to back this up fell's, I do not know just how to send them in.

I found a nice 1876 cc quarter in a small town in Central Missouri while hunting artifacts
this was about 1979. it's in very fine condition.

My most valuable coin isn't worth that much but here it goes anyway. It's what got me started detecting back in 1979. It's a 1921S Morgan dollar. I could be wrong but most people will probably never find a silver dollar unfortunately. A couple of years ago I also found a 1886 V nickel as well.

Mine just changed........ Worth a couple thousand.

silver dollar or gold coin like that is my dream. congrats Mark.

Since I'm in California my rarest coins are usually S minted coins: 1908-s IHP, 1910-s wheat, 1913-s wheat, are worth more than the most silver coins I've found. The IHP is around $100.

Actually I've found an 1893-s barber dime which is fairly rare and 1856 Seated Quarter but none pass the Indian's value.

Those are some really cool finds! That 1893-S Barber dime sounds especially interesting. It's amazing how some old coins can be worth more than silver coins. Hope you find that gold coin someday!
