Had a few hours between yesterday and today to hit a couple of my favorite old spots....first time with Etrac. The IHs are dated 1908, 1891, & 1881. The three of them were found on the same site that my biggest coin spill find (7 IHs), and quite a few silvers were found. The war nickel (1943) was found down the road at the other site where i also found the '56 wheat and a '59 penny.
The cold wind was more than enough to make the hunt short on both days.

Looks like you had a good day even though it was cold. The coppers look to be in good shape and you didn't come up empty handed in the silver department. :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

thanks, everyone. a lot of this stuff was passed over with the older Sovereign, but i will dig most everything until i get an idea what those etrac sounds and numbers may indicate.

It is a child's fork. And I think it's either a puppy or a lion cub on the handle.

i like that shade of green on the IHs too...especially if i dig them up :beerbuddy:
