Got out for a quick morning hunt hitting this super trashy area ive been avoiding, full of hot rocks, old plumbing. Just moving slow and trying to listen for the nice high tones after digging many trashy targets, I got this emerald green wheat cent 1914, second keeper was this sterling silver soup spoon also got this sterling silver handle marked JE caldwell and co, a philadelphia jewler started in early 1800’s, i added a picture of all 3 silverware pieces to show what ive got out of this area but I had to dig alot of holes to manage these “keepers” not sure how much money you had to have back then to just throw the silver out in the trash but im not complaining:) HH

Nice going on all that silver ! Your great pictures of that penny's departure from the ground is kind of like watching a birth ,
great C-section there Doc ! Great patina on that coin !
