Hope you guys aren't getting tired of my posts.
Anyhow, I hit the honey hole again today for 2 hours. I started hunting the site a little more methodically today. It's nice to find the older ones, but I'm more than happy with these, and it's great practice! I'm getting a real good handle on my machine now.
Well, some of the coins are a little crusty...but here they are. An 1891 Indian Head, 1894 Indian Head, 1900 Large Cent, 1916 Large Cent, 1922 Nickle, 1933 Penny.
My favourite find of the day was this awesome pin someone made from two mercury dimes...both dated 1917 (nice to see the dates still on them, but no mint mark unfortunately). You can see where they were soldered together and it gave out. They attached a pin and loop on the back of them, which is broken. I found the first one and thought it was awesome it was cut out. I checked my plug before filling the hole again and to my surprise there was another one. Only then did I notice the pin and loop.
Well, that's it for now...check out the pics, and make sure you see the 2nd page of pics as well.
