Bet you dont have a dime like this.

Found on a house site in Crawford county Ga. Took a pocketfull of finds and put them in a dish on the porch. A little while later my nephew came in and asked what is this thing with a face on it? Well i thought when I found it that it was a coin that had been shot with a 22. I had not cleaned it yet. Dang its in purty good shape. Anyone seen one before? I'm thinkig maybe from 1910 Cotton States Exposition? Or a Fair?

Great find. These suckers are hard to find, found one last year after 18 years of detecting. Congratulations.

Thats new to me. Was it a pin of some type? Am I seeing solder and a small hole on the back side.

Nope, but I do have a Morgan Dollar like it, but not found with a detector. Always loved these pop out coins.

repousse punch coins were made by putting the coin between a set of dies. I assume that they seemed to be most popular in the 1910's because practically every one I've ever seen has been a Barber coin dated from the 1910's. However, dies can still be purchased today if anyone has an interest to produce punched coins.

These are still being manufactured, I think. There is a youtube video on them that someone forwarded to me once. I don't remember the details, but it might be worth checking out.
