Tonights Finds

[WessThompson]

well I managed to get out for a couple of hours tonightand was rewarded with a couple of firsts tonight.

1816 half penny token (Nova Scotia)

Not one..but TWO shillings!! 1817 and an 1834....the 1817 is worn pretty badly on one side, but I can tell it is different from the 1834 design. These were both in the same hole, and I'm guessing lost by a British Soldier. Probably a couple of days pay back then!?

1891 large cent

1870 dime

1906 and 1910 fishscales

a couple of buttons

and a pin that reads "Ontario 1917....4028 L O" any ideas what this is!?!

Hope all is well with everyone.

Really nice old finds there! Are those normal finds for you?

 

[WessThompson]

The finds in the pic are pretty much in line with the kinds of finds I usually make. Although I admit those are my first shillings. I find many old british coins here thought....war of 1812 buttons...etc. Most of my coins I find are between 1812 and 1890 or so. Where are you in Michigan!? Anywhere near Port Huron??
