Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
Went to a couple different spots today . One was a hay field next to a foundation hole that was occupied in the mid 1800s. Then on the way home stopped at a park and dug some clad and a new metal detecting mascot I will call Rocco . He is wearing his first piece of the treasure chest . A .925 girls heart ring . Included in the two digs are a 18?? LC , a toasted IH penny , a 189? V nickel , and my first ever tax token . Issued by the state of Mississippi . How in the world it ever got in the middle of a hay field in upstate ny ill never know . A huge pocket knife , odd decorative scroll pieces made of copper and brass .$ 1.30 in clad and some other odds and ends . Man is that fertilizer hard on coins .

1891 V-nick, and I'd guess the LC to be 1843 or 1853 judging by the neck line of liberty. To me it looks like 1843. Congrats bud and the rest of them finds are pretty awesome too!

some great finds there, good job on the Cent Trifecta!, that's one huge freakin pocket knife too!

good hunt!
 

Great hunt, lots of good coin, brass, big honking knife.
 

Great hunt. You wonder how that tax token made its way to you ? That's the fun & mystery of our hobby. I once found a tax token from the state of Alabama up here in Northern Illinois, & wondered the same thing. What are you doing up here ?
 

Nice hunt.

Congrats to you and Rocco.
 

One of these days im going to dig a decent looking LC and V :laughing7:
 

Depending on the age of your tax token maybe the underground railroad during the civil war would be my best guess cool digs happy hunting
 

Nice hat trick, Rubber duckies make bath time so much fun according to my 4 year old.
 

One of these days im going to dig a decent looking LC and V :laughing7:


You will.
Keep digging "trash" and the V Nick' will appear. Keep digging clad dimes, pennies & quarters and the LC will appear.
 

I dont seem to have trouble finding Vs and LCs I just cant seem to find any with decent detail . Lol
 

Some good stuff and a nice Silver ring!! :icon_thumleft: My same problem on the coins.. I find'em but their all wrenched...
