Paulito Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Got out for a couple hours today. 1893 s Barber dime, slightly-semi-rare, has xf45+ detail if it weren't for the environment damage. My oldest Chinese coin 1662-1722 Sheng Tsu reign. and my favorite of the day, the heart boot plate, Wild West prostitutes' business card of sorts :) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabin Fever Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Nice details on the Barber and I agree, the boot plate would make my day.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldbrick Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I wonder when heart shaped boot plates went out of common usage? Could help to date other finds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Southern Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Very Nice Heel plate for sure... See how small it is...Womans shoe.... Now I dont know for sure but I have read that women of the night would wear those on there shoes so when they walked down the old unpaved streets they left a calling card of sorts behind .. It would date 1860s..not past about 1870s I wouldn't think..we dig them pon Civil ware period sites here only.. Keith 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitebutler Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I found this while out hunting I a nugget infested area. I think it's the same type of coin. Mine is a little more beat up but I think it is the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
