Some wheats, Some relics

[8Reales]

Managed to find five wheat pennies 1917,1919,1928,1946 & 1956. A sole Indian 1903. A dateless buffalo and a 1947 Jefferson

Nice assortment of relics a key, a bottle cap COCO 55 Paris ?, no idea. This is modern it was just under the leaves. A beauty of a green marble and a not so pleasing broken green marble. The smallest lipstick tube i have ever found. Two bullets both modern, but really like how white one is. The relic in the center is possibly a button, the center looks like a shank mark, but no sure.

This next find is intriguing, im thinking religious medal, but not sure either. Its shaped like a heart, one side looks like a virgin of some sort and the words " Matli Dei ". The other side is rough but I can make out the word " Jesus " Its paper thin, im thinking old but not certain. Any help is always welcomed.




Last but not least, this small caliber cartridge with an acorn, I thought it was neat.

Cool finds! And that was just what I was thinking, when I first saw the medal, a virgin for sure. Just not sure what kind. Sorry, couldn't resist. All in jest.

very interesting finds and neat too with some cool factor thrown in. plus a Buff and an IH to finish out the wheaties. I'd call that a pretty good hunt

Excellent hunt, love the religious medal, dei is Latin for God, couldn't find "Malti" in my quick search. I bet that artifact is very old. Great job 8R!

I believe your religious medal was once part of a rosary.
Congrats on a very nice hunt.

Nice finds. If you want to get a date on the Buff there is a method I tried that was amazing. The buff will look new when finished, but you can get the date back. Vinegar in the freezer for about 30 minutes then add a little peroxide. Drop in the nickel and give it 24 hours. You might be surprised. I did all my dateless and it worked on them. Like I said it will turn out looking like a new nickel if that's what you want.

Correct a hunt with an IHP is always a good one

Hi Tom I have the same theory but not sure. I’ll keep trying to read the rest to see if I can get a better
Idea on when it was made.

Got give this a try, I have lots of dateless buffalos, the 24 hours are outside the freezer right?
