Test Hunt...or Year of the Indian Head

[romeo-1]

I got out for a few hours this morning to one of my "old faithful" sites to test run the Vaquero I picked up this winter. The jury is still out...I'll need to get on fresh ground before I decide how much I like it. The first target I got was an Indian Head penny...my third one so far this year. I've gone years without finding American coins (being that I live in eastern Canada) so I'm batting a thousand this year! Also found the remnants of a very old pocket knife...may be trade era...got to do a little more research.

Hey Romeo, if that's the 'old faithful' I'm thinking of, there's been lots of Indian heads found there
It must feel good to be able put a shovel in the ground and good luck with the Tesoro!
