Standing/Barber/Indian/Nickel Mania

[floodplaindetector]

Finds are from a short 3 hour Friday park hunt and a Sunday hunt (8:30 - 3:30) to a couple small town parks 2 hours or so south.
The Standing Liberty Quarter was about a 9 inch coin and came from the Friday hunt along with the 1946 dime, a V nickel, couple jeff nickels and couple wheats.
The rest of the finds are from the Sunday hunt.
Quarter is 1917s.
Dimes are 1911d, 1946, 1959.
Nickels are 1899,1901,Dateless Buff, Dateless Buff, 1937, 1943 war nick , 1943 war nick, 1945 war nick, 1949, 1954, 1955, 1958, 1958
Indian is 1890.
Wheat pennies are back to 1919.

Even though I couldn't find a stamp I believe the small ring to be silver as it was about 7-8 inches.
Also found was a 1920-30s Sunday school pin, 1930 Overalls button, A possible musket ball, Hair Pin and a couple misc buttons.




Thunder was my coil again.

your buffalos held up better than the jeffersons. I get a lot of nickles like that when the ground stays wet, looks like they rust.

Hi Chuck,
The buffalos and Vs were brass brushed and scrubbed with SOS pads so they look a little better. They came out of the ground a lot darker but still decent.
Those Jefferson nicks from the 40s and 50s do seem to come out pretty red though.

Awesome digs FPD! Love those SLQ's and digging nickels out of a park can't be easy with all the trash.
