this W/E found coins from 1700's, 1800's, and 1900's!
Along with musket balls, mini's, buttons (one gold plated) - I found a Large Copper from 1700's, 1891 V nickel, 1898 IH, and pennies from 1900's.
Mini's and musket balls and buttons and key:

Copper does not come out of this site in very good condition. Even the V nickel is badly weathered. But the wheatie showed me that a coin under 100 years old (made of copper) takes a beating in this soil.
HH!

Maby you have the same soil conditions as we do in the W.N.Y area
HH & KEEP DIGGIN'EM
 
Do you have to eek them out in the midst of iron stuff?
Man, those are oldies and show many years of occupation!
 
although some stuff registers in at the 8-9" mark like the musket balls and some LC.
This LC was only 1" in the soil but nickel and IH were both at 5-6" mark.
No I don't hunt iron junk yards and don't have to where i live. There is some iron in ground where I hunt but it's normally quite tolerable. On occasion I will find a coin next to an iron nail but most stuff is just sitting deep waiting for my coil.

we won't have many more days of hunting here - plus X-mas is right around the corner. I'm pretty satisfied with my finds this year. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">
