lets see'em

[del]

hey do any of you seem to find a particular coin or item besides the usual pulltabs , oxknob or junk on a semi- regular basis in the last two seasons i've pulled four (4) 1831 large cent coppers , which is kinda odd enough but every one of them have been in pretty good shape (some just a little more worn than others is all)
and the odds of that have to be incredibly slim. i know Coinnut one year seemed like every other coin he pulled out of the ground was an 1803 large cent (how many did you find that year George and how many do you have in total) so lets see or hear about your most frequent particular coin or relic or item.

Since you've ruled out the aluminum style pulltabs lol
I guess I would have to say the 1944 wheatie It seems if I'm in a area where I'm finding wheaties it never fails. I'll pull at least one 1944. I mean why couldn't it be the 1877 IH lol

It'll be interesting to see what comes in abundance for others :-> :-> :->

I've found 9 mercs this year and not a single rosie! That is odd... but I'm not complaining

lol rofl rofl i know what you mean Tim , when i use to do alot of schools and parks just starting out i would always pull up a 1919 wheatie . sometime the the truth is stranger than fiction , huh so how many 44's do you have now Tim??

[tanacat]

Yes! 44D's here.... I bet it's the highest mintage year, I've never checked. 52D's are pretty common sight here too. You?

[jkress]

The LC's Dan.

I seem to get quite a few 1919 Wheat Cents.

[trout-hunter]

There were slightly over 2 Billion 44 wheaties of different mint marks produced and I too have found my share. lol

[coinnut]

My odd find that is recurring, is this strange guy that I find at almost all my Saturday hunts. I think he drives a jeep rofl
[attachimg=1]

Other than that oddity, I find a lot of duplicates.

nice try but the question was for a particular coin or item , not a who , he , she or person of anykind ...

lets see all them 1803's buddy

[coinnut]

I can only find two 1803's that have really nice, clear dates, The rest are not very readable, so instead, I am going to go by theme here lol We find a lot of different items relic hunting, like crotal bells (I have a big jar full of them) or flat buttons, but this year has been a good year for finding Seated silver at cellar holes. So here are my 6 Seated coins, 3 of which were found at cellar holes, 1 at a park, and 1 at a picnic area and 1 at an undisclosed location lol. I have never found 6 Seated coins in one year ever. To me this is definitely odd for my type of hunting lol

[silver star]

I always find 19 and 44 wheat's and also 23 Merc's HH Mike

[aloldstuff]

Okay, I seem to find alot (seems it to me) of these buckles. Last year it was an every hunt occurance to bring some home with me. Did'nt know what to do with them so I put them in a cigar box. Do any relic hunters see any old ones??

[del]

very nice Al , most are just horse tack type buckles from harnesses . i do see a a colonial shoe buckle frame (big rectangular one on the left side) and a couple of the ones in the lower picture are sure interesting looking .

<} <} <} That's too funny...

[Ill Digger]

... so how many 44's do you have now Tim??

8/ Oh you had to ask that lol
Ok so I dumped out this years wheatie jar and sorted them by the decade lol
So far this year I've found 19 1944's and after hearing the others mention the 1919's I sorted those out and surprisingly I've found quite a few of those too lol I've found 15 of those so far this season


I've got two more jars from the first two seasons that I'll go through......some time lol

[RobW]

or person of anykind ...

Is this the category of where you fall Dan? rofl

[aloldstuff]

Never really paid attention but tonight I got 3 wheaties, 2 of them 1944's

[del]

lol lol Rob knowing this character (Coinnut) for as long i have , you have to cover all your bases. lol rofl

[OxShoeDrew]

In my short 7 months of detecting (almost everyday) I have found about a hundred 200 year old items (copper/pewter/iron). I have ONLY found four coins. They are a 1891 IH, and 1919, 1951, 1952 wheats. Never found a clad coin. The other day I even had trouble finding the clad in my test garden

[coinnut]

Wait until you find a clad coin at a colonial site charlives lol there are no nice words that will come out >:/ I'm kinda surprised you didn't get any large coppers yet...but they will come. Then the only thought are
