Got out of work at 330 and beat feet for home to grab my M6 to get some swinging in before dark. Hit an old foundation COVERED in bittersweet and was on my hands and knees trying to swing. First target I got was a pulltab signal and thought great middle of the woods and am gonna get into pulltabs. Dug it and out popped a nice little gold ring, no marking and missing the stone. Also found a couple spoons, 2 silver bracelets, also no markings but came in as a strong 84 VDI and do look silver. Also found a 1862 Indian Head, a 1851 LC and another LC I can;t get a date off of yet. I swung for a bit over an hour until I couldn;t see anymore but will have to get back there again before the white stuff flies.

Great finds! It's a great feeling seeing the large cents pop out of the ground.

Great finds! BTW, one of those LC's is smaller than the other. Are you sure it's not a half cent?
