    Hello everyone,
    Today I did a 6-hour dirt fishing hunt at Brooklyn's Prospect Park. I detected 3 more silver coins to give me a total of 44 Silver coins found in parks throughout NYC for 2025!

    Here are my finds -

    Awesome finds!! Everything but the kitchen sink.
    Are you soaking that Copper? Maybe get an ID that way. Probably British.

    I won't be doing that. It's toasted. It's in bad shape and really thin. Whatever image was on it wore away.

    Work on that copper a bit. I've gotta know.

    What's the weight and diameter?
