Deus Finding France


Recommended Posts


Oh my gosh, that is absolutely beautiful !    Drips with history !   Strange how many French coins were showing up here in CA during that super early American period.   Was France one of the countries where Gold rush fever struck, and thus French folks were joining the rush to CA ?   We've found a few French coins of that era (whatever date would have been in circulation @ the early 1850s) at coastal sites of the same G.R. date range.   

 

Good job and great pix !

Outstanding finds, Chris. That 5 franc coin is huge! Bet it blew your mind to have the detector max out on something and it wasn't crap. 😀 Even the jewelry looks French. 👍 Cool half Reale too.

Tom,  so far American, Spanish, Swedish and now a French coin.  It is such a thrilling place to detect.

F350,  it was quite a shock for sure. I now have that kinda weird overload sound in my head!  I’ll dig those from now on.

Great hunt with some very nice treasures for sure.

Good luck on your next hunt and I would be hitting that area again.
