10 Mazuma Money And Some Other Stuff

[kac]

Wanted to give the Apex with 9" ultimate coil a good run so hit the area again that I had hunted a bit before. Found a strange coin that was super light and little larger that a half dime, had no clue but was 10 Mazuma Play money. Odd to find that in an old area.

Other finds are:

1 Flat button broken back

Harmonica but the reeds were rotted away

7 cents in clad

Odd looking fish lure or might be a whistle not sure but it's very old.

1911 V Nickel, 1892 V Nickel, 1899 Barber dime, 1910 Barber Dime, 1943 Merc Dime, 1897 IH penny, 186? IH penny, 1895 IH penny, 9 wheaties.

Musket ball

Very old Silver Claddagh ring was under roots of a tree, made me almost break a sweat

Couple of old cufflinks, one is white enamel and other has guilded front.

Talk about a great hunt.  You found a bit of everything.  I have yet to find a Barber of any sort.  The apex gets it done.

You are killing it, please leave some of the nice things in the ground so I can find them. I hope I will be back in Illinois at the end of the week to get out the detector again.

Good luck and happy hunting.

PS, please stay out of my area until I have a chance to get there.

Nice haul!  Another trip on the time machine back to before these productive areas were searched.  Can you figure out that 4th digit off the early IHP?  There are several semi-keys in the later 1860's:  '66, '67, '68, and '69 are all low mintage semi-keys.

I'll check that 186? again and see if there is anything left on the last digit.

I don't do much land hunting anymore but that sure looks like it was a fun hunt - congrats!

IH was 1864, tooth pick did a good job cleaning some the crud off so I could read it.
