Dan and I met this morning for a hole that was across a bridgeless river and .5 miles into the forest. Someone already beat us. :duh: Dan got some signals but I swung for two hours with only a broken suspender clip to show for it. On the way out Dan found a hole that looked great but was even more pounded than the first one.
We drove down the road to a hole that I've been hitting this week with great results. It didn't disappoint. I dug a two LC coin spill (1831, 1837), and my first cut copper!
Oh, and Dan thought I might have dug my first GW button!! :lol: It sounded low and small. 67 on the T2. I dug it and thought it a regular cuff button. I threw it in my button pouch and continued. When we were at the cars Dan saw a bust on it and said it might be a GW. :cheesysmile: He said it probably was worn in 1832 on his 100th anniversary.
I think I saw one mosquito all day! We'll head back when the ferns die down. Thanks for looking!
PS I didn't have any idea that copper was holed until I tooth picked the crust off it.
