    Dekalb Co. field hunt

    Yesterday Marinedad and I hunted a site that he has had his eye on. The corn was being picked,
    he knew this field had some history, so he was on it right away for some morning goodies. In the
    afternoon the dust betweem rows was kicked up, first some shotgun heads, a copper pencil top,
    Al. can and so on for about an hour. We hunted for 3 hours, somemore goodies in the pouch. My
    finds for the day were 1890 V-Nickel, 1919 Buff., 24 Wheatie, Train smashed cent, and a holed
    copper disc sames size as a cent that looked like it was plated at one time. The 28d & 43 Wheatie
    were from Mondays hunt in town. After a nice rain that spot will be hot Mark, thanks again.
