All the small keepers from the month of August


Costume jewelry. The first ring is a surface find, the second is missing the ring part.


Silver charm. Not so lucky for the person that lost it.


1600s Knee buckle.


My favorite find of the month. I thought it was a musket ball until I cleaned it up. Has 'Pewter' stamped on the side.


Found the first 2 at a site where my friend found this beauty You suck Hank


1722 Wood's Hibernia


MMMM Silver


1875 dime


My first dollar signal that was actually a dollar sized coin. I usually dig up copper pipe with this reading.
1772 Peru 8 Reale



My first mini. Found 2 at the same site. The other hit a tree and got half squashed.

Lambeau

Jeez is that a gold coin with the big section missing?

Those are incredible finds Phut, NICE JOB!

Wow. You found that in one day with a metal detector ? Almost looks like stuff you would find in an old well.

GoldenEyeNumismatics

Amazing finds as always. Great job!

DUBBA

STONE

Quick question-How easy is it to find a colonial coin/ many colonials?

Zulan

If you're interested in selling that Peru 8 Reales - PM me. I'm going out of town this weekend, but will be able to get back to you on Monday, if you do.

Thanks for the replies.
I wish this was one days hunt. It's about 1/3 of the stuff found for the whole month. 7 or 8 different sites.
Sorry for the fly-bys lately. Been kind of busy. I'll try to do some much needed catching up here soon, and maybe even compete this month. If I don't make it in time, no biggie. Good luck huntin'.

I know you just missed out on last months polls.....so whenever you can post for August will be fine.
I will hold off on posting the August polls till you can check back in. No hurry.
