Not bad for 3 and a half hours at 22 degrees. The Morgan is 1880. The small silver can't read, but considering the hole it was worn as a necklace most likely. The copper has some pitchfork shapes to it. Ill be posting that on the what is it topic. The farm we are detecting has spitt out a silver cob a couple of weeks ago.

Good score on the silvers and your big copper is probably a British penny that would be Britannia seated holding a scepter.

Nice finds. Congrats on what looks like a colonial copper even in rough condition. Still cool.
 

Excelent big silvers! That Morgan is very nice, I would leave it in its "dug condition" without cleaning too much as it adds character to be dirty. That mystery coin looks like a Hong Kong coin I've seen before, not sure the denomination but probably Hong Kong in origin.

Sweet I found a morgan in Michigan 25 degrees hunting in grassy area where the ground is insulated enough to dig Great find Keep posting
 

HEY THERE CURT , YOU PULLED SOME NICE FINDS FROM THE DIRT !!!!!!
 

Awesome old coin recoveries! I bet the Morgan will clean up nice. Congratualtions! :occasion14:
 

Nice finds. The small silver coins' hole was most likely to sew it in into the lining of clothes as early pants had no pockets. The good news is it may well be a reale.
