I am not sure whether or not you have Hobo (Home Owners Buyer's Outlet) stores in your area or not, but today I was shopping there and found a nice little Ames True temper mini shovel for $5.99 ($6.41 after tax)
The blade is galvanized steel with a wooden handle and a plastic grip.
It cuts a nice 6" diameter plug and pushed through about the inch of frozen ground that I have here with no problem.
If you are close to one of these stores, you might want to pick one up.
Not a great photo but the blade is 6" wide x 8" tall. The overall length from the top of the handle to the tip of the shovel is 26".
This is a photo of the shovel and it dimensions:

Still works. Still it doesn't replace the need for a narrow relic/coin digger.
