Nice Digs With Silver Half And 1700's Cash Coin

I went back to a spot where I found a bunch of old coins the other day. I took my time and dug every good signal. I found two more Mercs and a War Nickle. I also dug a cool Chinese Cash Coin and it's from 1736-1795 during the Manchu-led Qing dynasty. Reigned by Emperor Qianlong. Thursday I went out of town with my buddy Micah for work and afterwards we hit a couple old schools. The first wasn't as old as we hoped and dug a bunch of wheaties but only one Rosie and a gold plated silver ring along with a .50 caliber round. I imagine a kid took it to show it off and lost it. The next spot is now a church where Micah got a Merc and right as it was time to go I got a nice 9-47 10-47 on the Etrac and was hoping it would be a silver quarter. I was excited to see a dark silver half down in the hole. A Walker was a great way to end the hunt. HH & GL David

That's a great hunt I found a Chinese coin it was I think a 1945 I have found mny foreign coins I always get excited because they look really old cause they are not US currency but they are all from the 1940s and 50s even found one german coin with a swastika , They all look like ancient coins at first... Good job thanks for the post Im going nuts waiting this snow out ,,,,,

Amazing hunt! Like you just went back in time and reached into the pockets of someone fighting in WWII - you got the 43' walker, mercury dimes, and 50-cal bullet and everything!

Pretty sure the star button is the best find, can we see close ups of both sides? (unless its a wick adjuster??)

Unfortunately the button is a modern button that went on blue jeans or coveralls.

Hello Sooper Dave. Those are some great finds.

I like the Rock Island TN tool tag and of course things always go better with silver...especially the big silver.

I hope the good finds keep poppin' for you. Thanks for the post. C9

Shame, it reminded me of an 19th C Patriotic type!
