Default Broken pot with old coins
Today early in the morning after work in 4am i have decided stop near old farm for a small hunt. I have been there before and never find there any relics, but my friends told me that few days ago thay find there very rare coin so i wanted to check my luck this time too.
I was detecting there and i bet other people check there too but today is a my day! I have heared strong signal but it seams that there was just a big item - as there were not much goals to check - i start to dig first i saw a peaces of the broken pot, then few coins. Total acount were 13 copper coins period of 1754 to 1788. Still no silver but i wasn't upsent anyway .
Here is photo report of the hunt and coins after bathing. Thanks for watching

Unbelievable! That is such a great find, and those coins are in really good shape for being so old. Thank you for sharing

Fantastic once in a lifetime find! Pardon my ignorance, but are those Ukrainian coins?

Hope my lifetime find is ahead (a pot with silver or gold) but anyway i am happy Those coins belongs to times when Ukraine was part of Russian empire. We was 300years under Russian empire then 70 in Soviet union - only last 20 years become independance. Thanks for asking

Those look like those huge Kopek coins, no? You should post a picture next to another coin for scale - if it is the coin I am thinking of they are massive coppers. That is an *incredible* find... WOW! Congratulations!
