ive had the machine since april. here are my notable finds. ill list tthe coins because my camera died before i could get a good close up(i think i found the 69 cal and the shield nickel with my old ace350)

1 3rd century Roman bronze coin--Gratian:coin should read GRATIA-NVS P F AVG on the Obverse, and REPARATIO REIPVB on the Reverse.(Thanks Tyre Kicker for the id)

1 1859 Indian Cent

1 1907 V Nickel

1 dateless Buffalo Nickel

1 dateless(no rays) 5 Cent Shield Nickel

Also, i was wondering if anyone had any info on the gold backed button? i cant find anything on the brand--Robinett Pollard & Co-Philad(followed by a ^ with a dot under it)
any help would be greatly appreciated. also, the weird thing in the bottom left of the group photo? all these finds have been found near stafford va

That's an impressive collection of coins & relics, Nick! Pretty cool to find a 3rd century Roman coin in VA!

Nice digs...I wonder what the story on that Roman coin is. Very interesting...

a silver roman coin was pulled out of the same property over 20 years ago. he said that he sold it awhile back when times were tough. i wonder what kind of journey this coin has been through

Very nice! A roman coin, wow, those are the finds you wish could talk!

Looks like you're doing pretty good.
