Wendell Clark Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I found this Mexican 1925 10 centavos a little over a year ago. Dug it at an old SP stop that was very good to me. It sounded like an IHP. Solid 19 on the 800. As small as it is I am surprised that more have not shown up. Show some small silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardtimehermit Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 My smallest silver was found almost a year ago hunting the strips between the sidewalk and street in downtown Reno. This is an area that has been good to me. The dime is minted in San Francisco, and date is 1911. It measures 17mm. 😃ht👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoolofhardNox Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The smallest silver I have found is a couple of these US 3 cent silvers. They don't come up very often though. Size is 14 mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abenson Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Does this count? It's actually a small bit of a seated quarter. I figured it's from an 1853 with arrows and rays. Found it with the Equinox at a military camp in Utah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of a rarer and cool find. Must have been a poker debt. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneguy Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 A couple of canadian silver 5 cent coins found with the etrac back in my coin shooting days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Edit - oops, not silver, but it is tiny. I have a tiny silver I will post tomorrow. If we are including cuts I have slivers but I'm not going there! I apparently found the smallest intact coin found by the entire Colchester club in all these years of hunts. Victoria 'Model Eight farthing' 1848 0.29 g, 8.4 mm show about a fifth of the way down on the page here.

Ill Digger Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 It's not silver but it's small. It's my Celtic gold quarter stater from my last trip to England. It measures 10mm. This is a picture of it sitting on my pinky fingernail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valens Legacy Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I also found a 3 cent piece and a couple of dimes. That was my smallest items I have found so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
