Day off woohoo! I decided to return to a spot that produced a couple Indian cents (and not much else) last year.
On my walk to the spot I found three silver dimes all in a one foot circle. What fun to get a solid silver signal, and then hear two more close by! Turned out to be two Rosies and a Mercury.
When I got to the spot I slowed down, it's loaded with iron junk. The first screaming signal was this large buckle (sash?).
Then I came across a blip of a good signal and dug up a big old rusty nail (see it top left of the coin?). Then a little chunk of chain came out, and then a large cent! My FIRST Vicky large cent in eight years of digging. I've dug quite a few silver Vickies but never the copper. I think the chain used to be attached to the hole in the cent, maybe was used as a watch fob or part of a necklace.
Pretty fun day if I do say so myself!
