Very dry here in Illinois too! >:#
It looks like you still had great results though, Dave! An 1871 Indian Head is a great find! Love the V Nickels too!

Nice keepers Dave. :clapping: I haven't turned on my machine much in the last three weeks, but from working in my
garden I can completely agree the soil is dry. Much like July from previous years. crying01
From the coins you found today... looks like you have a very nice place to search. thumbsup01
Congrats on the IH's and V's.
Great hunt and great finds. Still looking for my first V nickel. Yep, the ground is like concrete here in Missisippi. Have bout decided to wait till it rains some. Last time I went, a few days ago, had to use a sharpshooter just to break the surface.

Good stuff there, Dave...It's dry here, too. I went out today and it was like digging in powder.
