    Greetings.I'm from Russia myself, I've been digging for 14 years and I know that it's always nice to find large portrait silver. Once I found 1 US cent of 1938 by myself. But we have places where people no longer live or the forest has already grown much more, but the cop style itself is very different from ours. Have a good find!

  • @OldFart2023
    @OldFart2023 Рік тому +1

    Watching these vids, thinking back to the day these coins "were lost." Can't help but think how devastated that person might have been. Especially the dollar coin. Even if it was lost in the 20's -40's, that was still alot of money back then. And the coins lying on the concrete slab surprised me. How many may have been hauled away after the building was torn down? Were they stashed in a wall....or....? All in all, cool beans!!

    When you metal detect at these sites, do you have to ask permission first? I suppose abandoned buildings are a different matter, but somebody must own the land. Just curious before I go out there!
