Sorry no very old silver yet. 1929 is my oldest silver.
 
1899 should be next...

...I go to sleep out here on the West Coast hoping to post a 1907 and 1904 and you guys jump right past!:roll:;):D This is a FUN thread!!

Oops!!! I just realized I do have a 1899!1 It is a barber Half I found during the Great Haunted House Boardwalk Remodel Dig! This is where most of my older coins came from.

:giggle:
my years are starting to get a bit scattered, but still have a few more upcoming dates kicking around. ;)
i've got an 1898 ready to go, but i'll be gone for the next 10 hours, so likely won't get to post that one. :no:


and yes, what a great thread! quite a variety of coins showing up too. :shock:

I know that an 1897 has already been shown, but I've been waiting a while to post and missed my other chances.

Need an 1896 next.
 
1896 is up

I still have plenty of years to come, but I'm stuck at work. Loving this thread. Can't wait for 1876. I got a beauty.
 
Well, I'm out. Flew past my oldest year before I got a chance to post it. 1903 IH found earlier this year (the one in my avatar). Great thread. I can't wait to see how far this goes.
 
Did you read the title of this thread? Guess not posting those coins. :lol:


Hi all!
Got some oldies in my 2-1/2 years of diggin.

1620s 4 reale Mexico Cob

Undated issue of Portugals King Johannes IV Silver 400 Reis, (Cruzado)
these were minted 1640-1656, a VERY rare coin especially without a later revaluation countermark

Now let's move on to the first silvers minted in the British Colonies, Massachusetts Silvers by John Hull.
Silver Pine Tree Shilling, Noe-1 Variety, dated 1652, likely minted 1670s.

And a fairly modern coin, but since it's gold, I'll include it.
1780 Netherlands Ducat.

And Maybe, Just Maybe, a Pewter example of a 1776 'Continental Curency',
does not match 1876 or 1962 restrikes, proper weight for an original.
