Set my alarm for 7:55 and Ironhorse showed up at 8:55, we left at 9:05. We stopped for our usual coffee and I paid with a $5, and said to give me all nickels for change. We then drove 5 miles to the site, left the car at 9:25, and walked 55 paces to the site. I then said "I hate you Abe" 5 times, turned on the detector to find my Pine Tree Shilling... and I did get a tree coin, but not the one I wanted! So I said this is stupid 5 times, and went and dug a cannonball instead... and that was my day. :)

Wow - you really took that to the extreme, but I see if paid off nice. You might be onto something.

Hilarious post! Nice cannonball. I too laughed out loud when I got to the Abe part. Thanks for that.

Now that's a great hunt IP! :occasion14:
Anytime you can find 'old money' and 'military stuff' is a good hunt in my books! :laughing7:
