Hello All-
After hearing the voice of reason I thought I'd show alittle of my Finds...The main reason I don't show is that my Picture Capabilities are truly lacking. My scanner is on the fritz... :'(

Don't get me wrong I always wanted to show my goodies...but I'm no techy.

These are just a few to show...

The Coinage was found in different areas, while the Silver Assay was found dare I say in a Tot-Lot... ???
I sure didn't expect that. :icon_pirat: ::)

It's been awhile...My job keeps me locked up...My family takes the rest of my time. I think I'll get out SOON!!! :thumbsup:

Pic1 is the front of a 1875s Tade Dollar...found around a old tree in between its Roots
Pic2 of course is the back
Pic3 is the front of 2 of my 3 Duits-the one on the left is a 1787 and the right is a 1754
Pic4 is the back of them
Pic5 is the Front of the 1981 Assay Silver Ingot
Pic6 is the back of it
Pic7 is the front of a 1922 Peace Dollar...found at 4 inches down. A 1889o Morgan Dollar found in Clay
Pic TD Front: Clearer Pic of Trade Dollar Front at Bottom of Post Thread
Pic TD Back: Clearer Pic of Trade Dollar Back at Bottom of Post Thread

*Sorry some of the pics are lame...I can't wait to fix my scanner. And to that Voice Of Reason...you know who you are Thanks!!! I felt Inspired.

Oh, you gotta show us better photos, that Trade dollar needs to presented in all it's illustrious glory. Amazing stuff you dug. Kudos.
 

Re: Time for Show and Tell...

Trade dollars can be very valuable... barring they're not counterfeit. A lot of counterfeits were made all over the world and they aren't worth much.

Great find!

Nice finds Wyatt :thumbsup:

Thanks Silverfreak...I can only dream that I'll be a stud like you one day. A lot of you guys on this forum make me WANT TO BE LIKE MIKE. I've been hunting on and off since my Army days as a 12B. The very first metal detector weighed 25 plus pounds and was used to sweep for anti-tank mines and anti-personel mines. By accident I found a merc dime with it and I've been hooked ever since. :thumbsup:
 

Re: Time for Show and Tell...

THANKS To Everyone Who Replied...Once I get my scanner fixed I'll repost the pictures so everyone can enjoy the detail of the goodies...

Reason...sometimes I think just what am I doing out here digging holes. I guess because I must.

Great finds.

Interesting play on words...I think we all ask ourselves that. But believe me it's a lot better than some of the other unsavory things that one could do. For some its scoring that certain item for wealth; some like the rush, some do it to preserve history and save it for future generations. For others like myself its all about the love of the Hobby. Thanks for such a thought provoking response...wyattrr
