Oldest coin to date & coke buckle

[kschae4]

Had the pleasure to met longtime md'er jabbo, yesterday. He was kind enough to invite me to park which some land usage dates back to the early 1700s.His finds are posted on the Fisher classic forum. Got my first large cent -1840 and some farm junk. He got some great 1700s British coins and button. Hope to get back there real soon. Today, got a cool & somewhat risque coke belt buckle. Thanks for viewing.

Ken, the Coke buckle is awsome. Did you find it there. Coca Cola collectors would love it. I posted my finds on Metal Detecting forum. Jabbo

Bunky- thanks. Stat-wise the LC rang in between 36-37 and was just 6-7 inches deep in an inactive cornfield. I was in relic but switched back to coin mode a few minutes before recovery.
Jabbo- No, the coke buckle was recovered down here, closer to home. TID jumped between 36,37,38, and was a little deeper, say 8-9 inches. Coolest buckle that I've ever recovered. I need to research it.
Regis-thanks, nice to see you back & hopefully posting soon.
