Popular Post ROCKINGCM Posted October 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2021 The wife and I spent a few really smoky hours at the gold rush camp site. It has been a little harder to find the good targets. The ground is hard as hell and I had to make a thin custom pick to break up the ground. I was digging mostly old round balls and sprue pieces with the DEUS. She was complaining about square nails coming up as 17 on the Nox. So I lowered the sensitivity and upped the recovery speed a bit which was just a guess? Anyways the next sweep netted a half dime and she is possibly still mad at me for finding it at her feet. Chinese coin was a lucky find on my way out. I can’t seem to take a good pic with this 12 Pro max so this is the best I can do. Thanks for looking. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valens Legacy Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 A couple of very nice finds in good condition for sure. Good luck on your next hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F350Platinum Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 That's some great stuff Chris! If you're only coming back from a hunt with 2 finds those are about the best I could imagine. The Chinese Cash can be very old. Each one has the name of a ruler and where it was minted. Try "lensing" them with Google Lens. For me the problem would be which way is up? ? You are lucky finding the more valuable coins. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe D. Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Cool finds Chris!!! Your wife will just have to get over it, with her next find!! "Finders keepers" and all that!!? I like how nice that 1835 half looks, and the offset -3- makes it a small date! Show us the other side, to see if it's a large or small "5C"?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F350Platinum Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 That's known as the "small date" version, got a "bad" photo of the back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
