    Met up with Fistfulladirt at Hillsdale again.....

    I first get to the fairgrounds around 8 a.m. Mr. D. is down digging as I'm walking up to him. He pops out a barber dime. Here we go again, Mr. D. is gonna spank me this time around too.
    We both ended up having a good day. He stayed a little longer than me, I had to leave around 11 to go watch my sons football game (they won). We will have to see all his goodies when he posts.

    Got me my first seated since starting back detecting in late Aug. Yahoo!! Its all stained up and I hit the back of it with my trowel but its still a seated. Also got the 1919 merc., the 1911 V, and 3 Indian heads plus the wheaties. You see the big silver looking disk? I thought that bad boy was a silver dollar. It was deep and hit like silver, I saw the edge of it in the hole and got all excited. Oh well. It was a fun time detecting. I tell ya, that fistfulladirt guy really can nail those deep silver targets. Here be the photos.

    I say that big silver disk is a worn Morgan! Congrats on some great digs Jim. Nice find that seated, and nice assortment of coins overall! D
