@furryfrog02 - That. Is. AMAZING!
Actually, I didn’t even have my detector with me that day. I eyeballed it in a dirt road next to a colonial churchyard, where it had been washed...
That shoe(?) buckle looks early! Like 1700s-early. Early 1800s at the latest, I’d guess. Mind you, that’s a guess. I’m no authority on them....
Yeah man- that thing looks hard core! I had a Lesche digger once upon a time, but it was a smaller, handheld jobbie. I like the rubberized foot...
I'd call it MS63-ish and no better, due to the reeding marks on the portrait, but as others have mentioned, that's largely a moot point since it...
I would say VG10 details, personally, to be conservative, but right on the cusp of F12, so I wouldn't quibble with @thomas mozzillo's assessment...
That one's a piso, not peso. (Small semantic nitpick, really. I mean, technically it is a 50-peso piece, but the Filipino spelling uses an "I"...
It is pretty cool. Gotta love Alien Cat from Planet X!
I'll say 65.
Oh- one little bit of unsolicited advice, If you don't mind, since I'm only now belatedly watching the video... You posed those silvers for the...
OK, I wasn't paying attention to the scale in the photos, so I was guessing wrong about the size of it. But... Re. your subsequent update about...
Say, @paddyman98 - dug any Seated silver yet? At the rate you’re going, I’d say that’s inevitable, if you keep putting the coil to the soil in...
Sounds like a hot tip to me! ;)
Everybody stop the off-topic posting, or I’ll have to remove the whole thread, which would be unfair to the original author. The petty squabbling...
Both of y’all stop the bickering now. You’re thread-crapping. Stay on-topic. *And the topic is the coin in the OP. Not either one of you.
BTW, I only dug three large cents in my detecting career. Had I been a bushwhacker out on those rural relic sites like my more hardcore local dig...
A large cent makes a hot signal- even at some depth- so I'd imagine he was in an area that hasn't been detected too much. It's also a flashing...
PS- holy cow, man! Congrats! I did not have a good idea of the scale in the earlier images, so I would not have guessed a large cent! I did...
Yeah, I had a drawer full of mysterious "junk". One piece later turned out to be part of a Rev War era (or slightly earlier) Brown Bess musket....
