Did some exploring and found some stone walls in some woods that looked like it was all cleared in the past. Targets were spread out but i did find some hot spots. Got my first buffalo nickel but can't get a date off it. In the end for coins i got a 1771 British half penny, 1813 trade and navigation half penny token, 1916 & 1917 canadian large cents, ? buffalo nickel and a nice silver 1906 fish scale. Plus some buttons, crotal bell and other goodies. I just rinsed the coins off and i think they could clean up good. Thanks for looking! [emoji2]

Im not sure yet. If the time of year is hot enough and the coin looks in good enough shape under the crust then ill set them on my car dash with the windows up for the day and by the time I'm done work or way sooner the crust will crumble right off and just leave a clean coin! [emoji106]

Now that's a spot that hadn't been hit or if it had they missed a good many items. Well done on the coppers and the Fishie.

Thats the best part about around here. Most to all spots were never hit. Except now by me. Haha
My hardest thing now is getting the time to find them and hunt them. [emoji106]

That was a very good hunt! Those fishies are small and hard to find! You live in one of the best place for relics, imho. Thanks for sharing K1DDO1979. :notworthy:

I just got another 1000 acre plot yesterday, farmer told me that he'll bring me up on the ridge and show me where the Natives ground corn. "The hole is this deep in solid granite!" showing me the depth with his hands spread out. Got to love a permission that is willing to show us where to hunt.
