wahoo! first capped bust!

[cheffer]

Hope you're all having a nice fall, best time of year to hunt here in the Northeast. I've been wanting to post my finds from the last couple weeks, today's find really got me in gear, so enjoy.

Found what I think is a new old spot in the woods close to town, took some old hiking trails and ended up in a beautiful grove. Found my first ever capped bust coin, an 1834 dime. Finally made the club! Not in the greatest shape, but it doesn't matter a bit to me...

​

Also managed to find a 1792 1 reale, my 4th in all....

​

1893-S Barber quarter, nice semi-key date..

​

1901 dime...

​

CT copper, I think, can definitely make out the lady and the bust faces left, but that's about it...

​

So close!

​

Quite a few buttons, including a real shiner....

​

Little postman button, this is the second one I've found....

​

Awesome buckle, big, almost 4 inches across, bail even swings still...

​

And a little Niagara Falls pin...

​

Thanks for looking, happy hunting,
Steve

Keep @ It and HH!!

Any Bust silver is sweet. I still remember when I dug my 1809/1811 Capped Bust dime this year. I fell back on my heels when I saw the date.

A fabulous assortment!

 

[dwayne sueno]

awesome, awesome day! sweet old silver, and the semi-key date quarter to boot. now go back and dig all those iffy signals.

 

[Iron Patch]

Great stuff!

Don't need much to ID the copper, even just one letter can do it. Is that part of the NIA on the right side I see? .... meaning it would be a British George II Halfpenny.

Hey Iron,
No, no identifiable letters. A shame, but I'll take it anytime...
