    Finds from 2 weeks ago

    First off, it's nice to have T-net back.

    These finds were from an old field that I posted finds from before. There was a school about 1/2 block away in the 1850's to early 1900's and I think the kids played in this field.

    The Half (1906 S) was found at an honest foot deep and about 5 seconds after getting the MD setup and ground balanced. The heart Throb token was found about 10 feet away from the half at 7 inches deep. I have no idea on the age.

    I also found some iron junk and clad.

    I hope the weather stays decent enough to hunt for a little while longer because I found the site of an old train station depot which is an unused park now.

    Thanks for reading,
    HH

    Great finds, especially the half The heartthrob token has a 50's vibe to it to me, but what do I know I wasn't around then.

    Re: Finds from 2 weeks ago

    Congrats on an awesome dig. Love to get something sweet like that within the first 5 minutes, but normally that means I won't find squat for the rest of my hunt.....But that's perfectly fine.

    beautiful half great job!
    I would rather live in a world where my life is surrounded by mystery than live in a world so small that my mind could comprehend it.  HH  Joe Hoo?  Southern and Central Illinois
