YOU SEE THAT BIG PILE OF DIRT? I ESTIMATE THERES 25 ARROWHEADS IN IT. ITS ABOUT 7 TANDOM LOADS, NO WAY TO SIFT IT ALL BEFORE ITS HAULED AWAY. DURN SHAME! IM TRYING TO FIGURE A WAY TO MAKE A POWER SIFTER FROM AN OLD 8 HP LAWNMOWER I HAVE. I'VE GOT PERMISSION TO DO WHAT I LIKE. JUST DONT HAVE ENOUGH TIME, MAYBE IT WILL RAIN, THAT SEEMS TO SLOW THEM DOWN A BIT.

Wow, neat finds! Looks like a muddy mess though. :P

Can you get a better close up of the 1/2 Dime? That is a nice coin find.

Nice haul of arrow heads. And great find on the 1/2 dime. That sure is one heck of a dirt pit as advertised LoL.

Congratulations,
