I'm glad you called me over halfway through that cache, I loved sharing that moment with you! Way to go!!
I ended with a silver roosie, three wheats and two buffaloes. Great day out!

That is such a wonderful site you have there. How much of it have you hunted and how long do you have to keep hunting it? I truly believe a place like that will keep giving up the good stuff even if you go back over areas you've hit already and just walk in a different direction.

place isn't exactly large, But, I'm sure we will never cover it completely.
Ground conditions are always Changing too.

There is also a yard beside it I would like to get in.
After doing research it appears it may have been where the teacher lived
when the school was first built

The new owner hasn't been there the same time I have yet

What an awesome day Jeff. :notworthy: I've found a coin spill or two before but nothing that I could definitively call a cache. Congrats! :thumbsup:

I can't 100% sure say Cache. there is the slight chance a Tobacco Tin with the coins was laying there & hit by a Lawn Mower & spreading the other coins I found away from the Tin, problem with thart mowers in the 40's were probably push power.
or it could have just naturally been Buried over Time.

But it sure looks like One , with the tin Pieces

If the guy I talked with comes through, you won't be needing new spots, I'll have your entire season filled, along with the rest in our group ;)
