We struck out at a site this morning, the only find worth mentioning was a tootsie toy car which I gave to the home owner. On the way home my partner Merc saw some state land as we sped by. I turned around and parked. We followed a wall into the woods. I set up a non-trash program and started swinging a walled in pen. The pens are all about 4 acres as that was the distance a farmer wanted to walk with a rock for the wall. I walked about 50 yards without hearing ANY metal. :thinkingabout: Then hit a perfectly repeatable high 80s at 6 or 7 inches. It came out of nowhere. It was dumb luck. :dontknow: A sweet 1817 LC :drool: and a nice small tombac about 5 feet away. The only two pieces of metal in that field. :shocked03:
Yesterday I had a short hunt at a different site. The flat button still has blue fabric on it :shocked04:stretcher: The dog tag is 1936 and the Ross Bros tag is a seed company. The other coins are wheats.
