I get out every morning for about 90 min but won't be able to hunt for the next week :girlcry:
I think the copper is a Hibernia but not certain ...and I didn't even know they made Madison dollars :shocked02:
Here is the take since Friday-

Great to get out for an hour or so everyday. Nice finds! I found a John Adams dollar coin and was wondering what the heck it was. No idea those were minted 10 years ago.

I think they are making dollar coins featuring every president eventually.

Congrats on the KGIII if that's what it is. An oldie for sure!

Congrats on the KGIII if that's what it is. An oldie for sure!Yeah, when I looked at it in the hole I thought it was one of presidential tokens from the 30s to 50s. Then I saw dollar on the back...but couldn't find a date...until google told me the date is on the coin edge. Thanks guys!


Not a bad 90 minutes of work there Drew.Thanks, Jeff...but it was a series of 90 min days. Maybe 4 or 5 days. I get to hunt daily now :grin:


looks like a George III Drew , I bet its pretty thin too .Thanks, Dan...you're good! It really IS thin, so thin in fact I threw it in my pouch thinking it was a shankless dandy, then I rubbed it, just to see if I had my first large GW :lol: ..then I saw the bust. I was really surprised it was a copper. That nose looked like the Hibernia noses.:)

Nice Drew! Wish I had an hour a day to hunt. Alas, it's not to be.
