Popular Post deathray Posted December 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2019 Hi folks...been working my butt off last few years. Purposely trying to slow down for awhile, get in some detecting, fishing, and work on my own house for a change. Went with some buddies, back to a camp weve hit for years. Place had activity from 48 to depression. Deus with 9" hf coil is the ticket. The nug was nice ...was just discussing how we where surprised one hadnt turned up yet. The 3 cent nickel is a first for me, and rare Ca find. Merry Christmas everyone! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kac Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Nice! Those Chinese coins in the mix with the square holes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB_Amateur Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Well done, deathray! Haven't seen your finds lately but it looks like you've made up for quantity with quality. I particularly like the the nickel 3 cent piece. I'd be giddy with that. (Nugget, well of course!) What's the date & mintmark of the middle Lincoln? I zoomed in on it but couldn't quite make it out. I'm hoping that is a scarce one (like a 1912-S or 1913-S). Thanks for posting the pics and hope your next hunt(s) is just as rewarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevada Brian Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Great finds Ray! Glad to see you back in the saddle. I can’t tell by the photo, but is that a real nugget or has it been melted into one? Hope you success continues. Brian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Valen Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Great finds Ray, keep up the great work. That nugget looks like a raisin spray painted to look like gold, just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of those early teen San Francisco issues from 1910 through 1915 are scarce -- mintages between 4 million and 6 million. Excellent find! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
