That sounds pretty awesome! Have you ever explored old tunnel mines or anything like that? I know that old towns and places have some pretty cool things. What's the oldest item you've found?

The oldest item would probably be several Roman coins I found in Spain. They dated dated to around 200 AD. Most of the coins I found there were medieval or later. I've been in a few caves, but never a mine tunnel. I've found lots of interesting items here in Texas, I once explored the remains of a very old house in South Texas and got a strong hit on the hearthstone in front of the old fireplace. I moved it and underneath was a cavity with an old jar in it. I opened it and inside was a roll of old Republic of Texas paper money. The jar turned out to be kind of rare, too! That really made my day for sure!

which one do we get, the one in the last pic is different.....and how do I get that last one

Thanks for the heads up, I've fixed the photos. The last pic that you saw is a coin I'm currently researching, I mistakenly posted it here. It may be an unlisted variety, and I haven't completely researched it yet, but if you're interested, message me. Thanks!

My history teacher loves these kinds of items, showed him this item and he thought it was pretty cool. I'll be fanning your page!

just a question about the item, is the coin going to be placed in some sort of protective sleeve or something like that? also, how do you manage to find all of this stuff?

Hi,
Yes, the coin will be sent in a plastic coin flip. I've been collecting ancient coins and artifacts for 30+ years, and have bought from archaeologists, historians, metal detectorists, etc. I've spent much time finding all these goodies!

I imagine you've found some pretty neat stuff during the time you've been metal detecting! What's your favorite place to search for artifacts?

Dec 6th, 2014 at 3:22:00 PM PST by

Any place with good history! About 20 years ago, I went to Spain and spent several days hunting, and I found probably 200 coins and artifacts in that time. I'm currently hunting in an old Texas ghost town that is on private property. I've already found a few old dimes and quarters, hoping to find a gold coin. There's nothing that compares to the feeling of finding an old coin!

My dad and I used to go artifact hunting. Brings back some good memories
