Ron(rcat)gave me a call about 1 pm today said he went to a site of an old schoolhouse and had no luck in the morning hunting that site by himself.
he said ya wanna get out for a bit so i agreed.went back to a spot we had gone before and this time i had a great day!

Most common there but a fairly uncommon find in the US. I don't think Don has ever found one and that's quite a few early coppers. We dig them here but it's expected.
