Hello all !!

To hot yesterday... and today I waited till 5pm... and it was still 90 deg... but I got onsite @ 5:20...

What was I thinking... Well... Lets give it a few hours... I was at the location that yielded the 1909 German War Warriors metal on on the 4th...

Clad was flowing pretty quick... and I got a butter knive... then this plated spoon.. but it has a PAT 86 on it... I assume 1886...

10 Minutes later @ 8... Hello Mrs. 1929 Merc...

Some more clad... a few old lead sinkers...

Then I got a nice quarter/dime signal @ 5... Nice big silver...

Here is a picture from the internet of what it used to look like...

Once the keepers started popping... the 2.5 hours flew by :-)
