went back to one of my old cellar holes.Forino dug his very 1st large copper here.i had a 5 copper day last time here (vid below) i also dug a nice 1803 draped bust with die cracks on a prior hunt.we nailed it pretty hard on countless occasions
so,today i wanted to give it another shot to see if I could squeek anything out.most of the day it looked like I was gonna get skunked
diggin all iffy signals iron included.
last half hour I got a iffy deep signal.out popped a small iron spike.ran the coil back over the hole and a nice 84 vdi reading still in the hole.
can't really see the date but it's a matron head large cent 1820's most likely.
I gotta try to make 60 large coppers before the years done.I'm sooo close!
