Popular Post Hardtimehermit Posted March 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2020 Time to share some finds i have been making with my Nox 800. From the Sierras to the streets of Reno i have been swinging as much as possible over the last couple weeks. I'm running in Park 1, sens. 19-23, manuel ground balance, 5 tone, and 5 recovery, but i also play with the settings some to learn the machine. Here are some coins and relics i just found over recent weeks. I'm new to coin hunting, only been hunting since the end of January, but i am falling for this hobby too much fun!😃 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Herschbach Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 From Wikipedia “By the 1840s, Indian peace medals had come to be known as a "presidential series" for which there was growing interest. The federal mint in Philadelphia started collecting dies for the previously issued medals. This began the practice of striking bronze replicas of medals for presentation to government officials or historical societies. Production of the bronze medals began in 1842 with the Jefferson medal. The dies of the Washington and John Adams medals were missing during initial production, however. The John Adams die was not collected until 1878, and the George Washington die was ultimately reproduced in 1903, completing the series.” Restruck in 2007 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix50 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Mate. I want to claim that Aussie coin. I’m sure I lost it when I was in the States in 2010. 😎🤪🤛🏻 On a serious note, I hope you guys are coping with the ‘beer’ virus and not taking anti-malarial pills for it. I’m hunkered down with Netflix and perusing my favourite forums. Keep safe y’all. 🔒☠️🇦🇺 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
