    Hi all,
    Every once in a while when I go metal detecting I find a world coin.
    This evening I found 2 of them.

    The first one is a 1/2 NEW SHEQEL from Israel
    The second coin is a 5 CENT EURO from España (Spain)
    Enjoy :woot:

    Very nice! Without giving away to many of your secrets, where did you find them? Out on the Island?

    Nice finds - they look in pretty good condition too, makes you wonder who was carrying them around and how'de they lose them.

    Yes to an Island but not Long Island.. Manhattan Island.
    The East River Park down in the Lower East Side :watching:

    That's great! I love that picture of Manhattan! So I take it most of your finds in that area are pretty much on the surface. Not doing much real digging, correct? Or are you?

    The only way we're going into the city is by LIRR. The city is a mess today and spiraling out of control with de Blasio. It's a shame!

    Oh no.. I do a lot of digging, that's my favorite part. If I find 50 coins maybe 2 are surface finds. Even at the beach exposed surface coins are there but only like 5 out of 60 coins.

    Really? Interesting! I didn't know that. I guess the ground is thawing out now. Thanks for posting those finds. Keep us posted on other interesting finds.

    Hey, gotta go. The ISLANDER game is on. And don't ask me my opinion on their move to Brooklyn! :vomit: Later..
