Man I dog some holes I went to the haunted out fort in New Orleans and I told myself I’m gonna only dig low to mid tones which were 8 though 17. Here’s what I got. Good ol War Nickel, What appears to be the molding of an Indian chief which I found in the Shellmound not sure if it goes back that far but what a coincidence, we and a spoon handle or for candle a cast-iron man on the horse and a lucky charm literally AND A TON OF THRASH. Nobody said it was gonna be easy View recent photos.png

When you clean out the trash....that spot will be even better to hunt for the goodies that may have been masked by that trash . And your cleaning up the environment !

Looks like you came away with a few finds anyway Truth. I went out yesterday, and came away with a pouch full of iron ! Now that's a bad day for me.

We are cleaning the environment that what’s I said when a lady asked me what I was doing. I noticed her looking at me with “that face” like every time I made a plug I was stabbing Mother Earth and it’s gonna be scarred for life. Lol

Good job! Digging like that is when you get the best surprises!!

Tony I put in the work because this is a 1700’s place that was also a amusement park in the 50’s and 60’s so what could be a pull tab or nickel or War of 1812 cuff button.
