Hit a sidewalk tear-out and scooped up some old coins! Dug 8 Indians, 2 wheats, a V nickel, Canadian large cent, Canadian 1892 dime, and a 1854 seated!!! It’s the oldest coin with a date I’ve ever dug!

I also found what appears to be a clay marble. It’s smaller than I would expect. If anyone can confirm it’s a marble (or not) that would be appreciated!

Nice haul...it looks like a clay marble to me. They came in all different sizes.
 

Nice finds! Love the detail on the IHP!
 

Very Nice!!!! Great Hunt!!! Congrats!!!
 

Man, I love those sidewalk tear outs! Great work!
 

It is indeed a clay marble Squirrel. Congrats on a nice batch of coins and digging your oldest to date.
 

We have sidewalks but they tear them out and pour concrete so fast i cant get in there :tongue3:

Yeah, I hate that. They usually don’t pour the cement the same day here. But they all to often put in the metal frames the same day here. I can still detect them like that but it makes a lot of the dirt effectively undetectable.
 

Awesome finds!!!! Congratulations
 

big time gratz on such cool finds, and your oldest coin too
