Rob and I have found a new spot. Rob had an exceptional day in the old coin department. I managed one little fishscale, a 1884. First time I dug one of these, boy are they thin and tiny. Along with the 1875 the 1884 is the key date with a mintage of only 200,000
This new spot should keep us busy for quite a while.
Thanks for reading

Great job Al. :clapping: It is definitely a nice one to add to your impressive collection. :yes: I haven't found one yet... but it
is on my list. :daydream:
