!800 & 1803..1942 merc. 2 silver rings 1919 wheatie and flat button..All in a two hour hunt..think I found a great spot..!!
 
Love the 1800 coin. Minted only a year after the death of our first president, how cool is that ? Congrats !!
 
VERY nice coins you got there, a dream day for anybody. As far as grading? My "Red Book" only goes to EF-40, I guess the quality control wasn't up to todays standards 200 years ago. I think

its easily a VF-20 but possibly a EF-40 from what I can see. (but what do I know?) I'd be tickled to even see a date!
 
On the 1800 there is a die break just to the left of the date and hair curls and also shows in same area on the reverse.
My question is does this abnormal break make this coin more valuable? I have heard that collectors are looking for
these type of errors. If this is the case than grading and coming up with a value for this coin becomes a little more difficult.
Looking for ideas from any of the colonial collectors.
 
Those are some really nice coins grunt wtg!!
 
You shouldn't have to think you found a good spot lol YOU DID! Amazing detail on the coin.
 
Beautiful coins. Keep in mind that this is only an asking price.

A hot spot for sure!! Sure wish we could find those type of ladies out here on the west coast, but like my dad use to say, "wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up the fastest." HH.
