That`s pretty cool,  makes you wonder who owned the home that would carry Moroccan money. can`t wait to see what you pull up from the other sides of the home.
gotta get out there take your time move slow, and dig everything, should find some more interesting things ... keep us posted on those great finds ...

Nice! That's a first in Iowa I bet. Here's a link. Does it look like this?

Another scenario might be somebody had a relative who was in North Africa after WWII and gave a nephew or a niece a coin from his travels.
Ya see Kevin, not that tough at all. Just have to keep at it. And if no one has detected the area before, then there have to be a couple of silvers around. Once you've finished cleaning up that area, go back and hit it again with the sensitivity turned up! GL & HH!!!!!

Great find.  I see many more in your future.
