The 2nd one of these and the 4th Mexican Olympics coin.
I walked north from the last 3 coins I found and in the thick brush was a lot of tree stumps. I got a hit at the 3rd stump and right next to the stump only less than an 1 inch in the dirt out pops an other. It proves to me that a worker cutting trees has lost all these Olympic coins. no.4 001.JPGno.4 002.JPGno.4 003.JPGno.4 004.JPGno.4 005.JPGno.4 012.JPGno.4 013.JPG And the rest of the junk I dug and some was on top of the ground.no.4 006.JPGno.4 007.JPGno.4 008.JPGno.4 009.JPGno.4 012.JPGno.4 013.JPG I only rinsed the dirt off not cleaned yet.

Great finds.
Are those coins silver??
 

The silver content is(.720) Not much value because they are considered circulated now. 72% silver.

Hey, silver is silver. 72% is more than double the silver content of war nickels.
Nothing wrong with that.
 

Nice finds. Gots to be the Mexican coin fairy.
 

Another one! You have to think there's more there! What a spot! Still find it hard to believe a worker would be carrying those on the job, and Mexican coins after all. Craaazy! Congrats!
