Guest goldstudmuffin Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hi All, I got out detecting today and found another new area that needs some prospecting, found these 2 nuggets in the late afternoon. I'll have to go back for some more detecting and to find my pick I lost too. :angry-smiley-010: Also found a trinket of some sort. Oh yea and I found 1891 V nickle in the same area I found the coin purse with a 1903-S quarter and a 1887 dime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawmill Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 You found a neat place,and some good treasure. I believe the mule is from Browns Mule chewing tobacco. I bet there is a good story about that little coin purse, and those lost coins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~LARGO~ Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hello GS Yes that v nickle is pretty cool, and for some reason, they are usually in pretty worn condition, at least the ones I've seen. Great finds, all! ~LARGO~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
