Cool variety from a short hunt

Heard it was supposed to rain today, so rearranged my plans a bit and got out at the park for about 45 minutes. First good signal on the E-Trac was a shallow 11-48 in rocks and roots. :rage: Worked at it and out popped a big green copper. Picked it up, looked and and thought, that's not a large cent... and quickly recognized it as a Bank of Canada halfpenny token dated 1854.

That kept me going and then out came a wheat cent, some trash and then an 07-34 that I thought could be an Indian head cent. When I opened the hole, I saw something white that I thought was a piece of styrofoam cup. Instead it was a pretty cool sorority :shrug: pendant made from shell and possibly gold and enamel. On the back the name Wesley is engraved.

Checked the time and I had time to make a few more passes and was rewarded with a 1935 buffalo nickel and not 5" away from it, a 1943 Mercury dime. :thumbup:
 
No kinding great variety.

Very cool finds. Never found a half-penny. Still on the list. And the Wesley pendant is a neat find as well. Isn't that a girls college?


thanks for the post and pics.
