Some more F75 finds........

Last weekend I hit a farm field with the F75........but on the way I saw some dirt piles at a construction site and hit those first. Always stop & hit those dirt plies. They don't always produce, but this site did get me a couple nice coins. An 1862 'fat" indian head, & an 1865 2 cent piece with a perfect brown patina. So there may have been a house or something there at one time......

Then it was off to the farm, and I was able to get another coin there (the big copper in pic above). It's an interesting 1832 Nova Scotia "thistle" bank token. A copper that was spent in the US during the "Hard Times" era when there was a lack of coinage.......
I also picked up an nice arrowhead with a broken tip that was plowed to the surface, and a couple pieces of Sterling silver including the fancy pickle fork. Then a musketball & a religious medal. I also dug some buttons that are not pictured......
 
If you guys, and gals haven't ordered Bill's Video your really missing some good viewing.
 
Hey Bill did you happen to see what numbers those coins registered? I am curious. I love those oldies. I want to find an indian head so bad.
 
Like in the 60's-70's maybe? I forget exactly because I dug everything above 20, & through the years they kept changing the composition of the indian heads & that was a "fat" one......
I can run a few under the coil & let ya know though.......

I just did a quick hot peroxide bath on it & left a little dirt to bring out the highlights & not try to overclean her.......
Thanks for the kind words.
HH,
Bill
