1834 William IV six pence...

[K1DDO1979]

I haven’t been out detecting much this fall but with a busy work season upon me I figured I’d give it a last go while I still can. I went to a place I hit earlier in the summer and found a colonial site randomly in the woods that gave up a load of early large coppers, buttons and shoe buckles. I didn’t have long but I hit the area as hard as I could and even though I think I found all the large coppers last time I did find some old silver I knew had to be there somewhere. It was a nice 1834 William IV six pence plus a couple of shoe buckles, two buttons, pewter spoon bowl and a tiny thimble. One shoe buckle is perfectly complete with the guts and all. To bad the decorative one wasn’t as well. Since the wooded area is pretty much totally hunted out now I’ll give the spot another go in the early spring in the big untouched open grassy field section when the long grass is totally flat. Thanks for looking! [emoji16][emoji106]

Looks like time well spent. The intact shoe buckle is a nice find.

Great site you got going!
Time to listen for the whispers of the deep targets and collect the rest!
Nicely done!

Man that six pence is unique. I didn't realize how similar the design is to Canadian coins. Way to go plucking a few more goodies!

Thanks. I’m still trying to get a old bigger shilling version. It’s always six pence’s for me. I’m not complaining though! [emoji16]

Nice finds! I got a William IV penny a couple months ago, but you don't see KWIV coins too often.
