Gold, Big Silvers and 1872 Indian

[floodplaindetector]

Yes, that edge on the poll has a pretty good age on it. The old farmer who owned it must have done alot of pounding with that axe

Glad you restored the axe but you do need to file off the rolled edge on the poll for safe use.

Great hunts. Simply outstanding.

Thanks Mark! Nice job on the recent beach hunting. That takes alot of skill to read the beaches and pull old stuff from there.

Nice group of coins. I like the 1950 Uncle Sam play quarter. It's quite a challenge to find all the years on the nickels, dimes and quarters. 1950 is an early one. They made them into the late 60's from what I have been able to find.

Very impressive finds there Dave!!!
It is amazing how public sites are still giving up these kinds of finds..at least for you!!

Finds are from the past few weekends since my last post. All finds are with my XP Deus 2 metal detectors.
Most of the finds are from North Dakota with a few coming from Minnesota after the snow hit.
Everything was found at researched public sites except the Axe head was found at a field site with very tall stubble close to my parent's farm in SW ND and a 1925
Mercury dime was pulled at their farm (farm is circa 1941. First silver found there in 18 years!)

The gold ring was pulled in ND and was a good 9 inches deep and read like a nickel. A 1925 dime was found in the area also.
The signet ring was at least a couple inches deeper than that. That was pulled in MN. It cleaned up very well, so I am wondering if it has some silver in it.

I had a little big silver luck lately.
Both Walking Liberty half dollars were surrounded by a lot of trash. One was found in ND a couple of weeks ago and the 1945 was pulled Saturday in MN.
It was almost straight up and down in the hole (see pic).
The 1872 Indian Head was pulled at the same park. At first I thought it was 1878 so I was pretty excited when it was the more rare date.
That is my 2nd 1872 as I pulled one about 15 years ago that was more worn.

Thanks for looking everyone and have a nice Thanksgiving!

Sweet finds!

 

[Donna(NJ]

Love those walking liberty 1/2 dollars ! !!!! I remember my 1st Walker, it, too, was on edge. What a beautiful site seeing that white against the brown soil !!!
The ladies signet ring looks to be gold plated brass. Just trow it in the tumbler to clean it up with your silver or new clad. Should come out real nice.

Looks like to had a fabulous time. WTG on all the silver coins.
