sat got out with PI JOE & BOXING 123 for a water hunt. $1.31 :hysterical: in clad them guys didnt do any better either.oh well we tried.
Sunday went on a solo hunt to a cellar hole.I hit this place pretty hard in the past & it shows.one musketball and a letter M printing key or block.
Monday got out with Gary to 2 different cellar holes.1st site gave up a 1865 IH & the King George I. 2nd site coughed up a neat victorian sash buckle and a 1904 IH.
the large disc in group picture I think is or was a counterfiet attempt.it's basically the same size & thickness as a silver dollar made from some type of white metal.i'm guessing it was an attempt at faking a 8 reale :thinkingabout:

more pics. i think the large disc with a planchet flaw was an attempt at a counterfiet coin.seems to be made of some white metal and almost the same thickness as a silver dollar or a 8 reale

Dave, nice going on getting #74. As I was looking at the pictures I also noticed the oxknob.

:congrats: On the copper and the IH, that sash buckle looks good to.

I know, I've dug my share of them, of course not like you just because of where you hunt.
