So I went back to my site were I found my two 1890 coins in my horse shoe square shape area in the bottoms. Well I went back after pounded by a quick rain and mudslicked into the creek. The mud almost like quicksand sticking in with each boot step, I started swinging and then I got a few good hits, with buttons and a few just random almost block shapes of brass. Then I have a good hit towards the middle of the of the bow shape behind the square and then started digging (got my shovel this time) and then in the hole I saw two coins sticking halfway one really appealing then I get down to pull them out then 1852 gold coin and in the dirt at the bottom of the hole 4 big pennys come with it.
