Finds from the Past Week

[Tony Two-Cent]

Here are my finds from the past week:

I found the silver ring at my "go to" grade school after work last Thursday. The Rosie was in a "hunted out" park during my lunch hour last Friday.

On Saturday I hunted a couple sites with my brother. I found the 1917 Merc in a ditch and the 1973 Hot Wheels car in a private yard. The good luck token was in a bean field where a house had once stood.

I went out with my brother again on Sunday. We hunted his in-laws' farm house and found the 1944 Merc. His father-in-law told us where an old house had stood in one of his corn fields and that's where we found the 1905-O Barber Dime.













Thanks for looking and happy hunting! :beerbuddy:

Looks like a nice 4 days of swingin' there Tony! :thumbsup02:
Congrats! :grin:
The Barber is a nice find! But I like the ring the most! It just has that "old" look to it.

Nice finds Tony. The Barber and 44 merc are in really nice shape.

The Silver ring is my favorite also. It just has that look to it. :congrats:

Nice finds Tony. It's a good time of the year to get out. How about a pic of the back of the Barber dime to see if it is the rare micro-O or regular O mint mark?

A nice pile of finds! You dug a matchbox like they do in the Detectorists TV show!

That's a beautiful little silver ring. It is what my 5 year old grandaughter would call " Very Fashionable" :thumbsup01:

The front of the Barber Dime has been lightly kissed by the plow, so I went ahead and cleaned it with baking soda. Here's the reverse, it has the normal O mint mark.

Great bunch of finds you've got there for the past week Tony :thumbsup02: the other day I found a silver rosie that baking soda wouldn't phase so I zapped it with electrolysis.
