I was out digging with Noah and my first hole in the first yard i dug a cool silver coin ring. I looked it up and was able to tell it was a German Von Hindenburg commemorative coin. When I got home and got it cleaned up better, I was able to positively ID it as 1935 5 mark German coin.
If you look closely, you can see the 19 in one photo, the 35 in another and the bottom of the 5 in another.

This is the first one that I've ever found. It absolutely made my day!!!

Very nice find Don! Got to wonder if a GI made it in WW2.

That's cool! :cool: Really sweet find Don!
Congrats! :grin:
Too bad the numbers and letters are on the inside. All those little dots would look cool on the outside.

Very cool ring Don! I remember my grandfather having a bunch of those coins he kept from when he emigrated from Germany around that time. Those are some large heavy coins!

What an incredible find, Don! How cool that you were able to ID the exact coin its made from. Whoever made it did a great job of making the writing legible on the inside. AWESOME FIND!
