Detected two full days. Had pretty good luck at some new spots, and went back to a place from last year that was extremely productive.
43 wheats: no new coins, no key or semi-key dates
10 indians: no new coins, 1867
Two seateds: one new, 53 arrows, 88
Three barbers: one new, 97, 08D, 01
Three nickles (one silver): all new, 82, 99, 44P!
Two large cents: one new, 51, 54
1856 French coin
A bunch of other things: buttons, gold locket, medallions, etc.

Altogether, 6 new coins!

You can't beat that 2 day hunt. That's a lot of Indians and I'd love to see the reverse of that nicer seated. Looks like a great silver!

For all that I'm well into the 1700s club, I have yet to dig a seated of any denomination. Love the silver.

For two days of digging you did very well at that site GI! :occasion14:
Congrats on all the silvers and the LC's, but I really like this piece!

Looks to be gold plated on brass ... do you think it's from a Victorian ladies pocket watch or locket? :icon_scratch:

Yes, it is gold plated. Most likely 1880-1920. Found at the same depth as the indians.
