Foreign coin of some sort-- looks like a Pacific island culture, w/ ocean waves and palm trees. What does the other side look like?

Will probably need the other side for anyone to get it. Looks more like a medal, and there's a million of different ones out there... and when you have no starting point it's tough.

Is it silver? If so, it's interesting, and could also be a jeton. What ever it is, it's not a typical east coast detecting find. The edge being sloppy doesn't really seem typical of an early silver jeton though. Curious to see what's on the other side.

Ditto- what's on the other side. It looks familiar. I think I have one somewhere. I'm thinking French Polynesia for some reason.

Here it is-

Cuba Peso

1 Peso - Cuba - Numista

That makes sense. And the rust is not from old nails, but probably garbage metal. I guess he is out of good ones! I didn't like the edge and sort of thought it could end up bad... but you never know!

LOL...

I just can,t fool you guys at all...wow ..I,m impressed!!!!


Found it at a 200 year old holmstead.....BUT.. they hold AEGIS gatherings every year...white witchcraft of some sort.

They gave me permission to hunt the back fields.....it was 8 inches deep....someone obviously put it there on purpose.

I was only there like 10 minutes...I seen the coin in the hole ..I was all excited and thought...wow is this gonna a big day hunting.

Then disappointment set in as I seen GUAM and REPUBLIC OF CUBA on the other side and finally the date..2007.

SIGHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

btw.. I covered the GUAM witgha piece of dirt to throw IRONPATCH off...woulda been a dead giveaway...HEHE.


just got permission today to hunt a huge field that's showing a couple old basements raised up in the grass..near a very old town...about 10 acres.

also for a couple big fields by another place with a lot of history...so hopefully more to come.

I got lotsa old coins to show you guys..but are easily identifiable.....so I guess the fun is done for now.

I only got a couple old unidentifiable coins that have absolutely no markings whatsoever..no good I guess.

TY all very much..your a great bunch !!!
