    found a half cent

    I havent posted in several years. With my elderly 2011 camo F75 ltd (upgraded), found this in Sept, my first half cent (yes in rough shape) Found at the site of an old residence built in 1816, now slowly being restored. We can see a 4 in the position of the last number, so we are thinking 1804...

    Forgotten picnic ground coins

    Probably took 10 hours and several days to snag these at a well hunted picnic grounds in the woods. The lucky thing was the three IHs were all in one hole. (1888, 1893,1903). The nickels, a V and a Buffalo, were both no dates. The dimes 1936 and 1917s. The Ugly Knife as i call it, is well...

    idea on origin of this imagery?

    Found this, posted it on Today Finds, any experts out there on such imagery, or do you think it adorned a piece of furniture or something. What i dont get is the round projections under the chin, are they curls, a collar, ?

    Cool Face in the River

    Used the FA mode to find this today on a gravel bar in the lower than usual river here. Thats not a nail hole near the top so i dont know if this was tack welded onto something or what, although i dont see evidence of that either. It is fairly hefty and steel i think. I wonder if those kind of...

    FA mode, no joke

When i first tried FA months ago i thought thats exactly where this mode might be...
