Yes, that is an awesome coin. I agree with you on the crotal bell too! I only found 1 crotal bell (so far) and it is one of my most treasured items to date. Love that little thing!That’s a awesome coin!
What’s going on with people digging crotal bells and being all nonchalant about it?
If you think that’s a picked over site with those finds , you need to visit one of my hunting sites. That’s a really nice coin!
Honestly, I've got a bucket full...Not an uncommon find here. I do like to dig them and I keep them all and display the best.
The field has just been disked twice in the past week which stirred things up quite a bit. The last time I was on this site I didn't find a thing...figured it was tapped out!
when i was younger - we get spots like that - thought they were done and then would be near by one of them few years later and stop in and bam it would seem like a whole new field
whether you are new or old - if you have good field spots that you hit for a year or 2 and thought you got it all - think again
couple of spots i hit 20 yrs ago (others did too) and we thought were cleaned out - Ive recently been going back to and still pull small spanish and small American coins that others
missed - will get a rare larger coin now and then but most are IHs or smaller - all the bigger stuff is gone but I will take what i can get
i only get excited now over crotals for 2 reasons - #1 - usually means no ones been there or plows did a good turn over and there may be more to find if im getting bells
or #2 - if they are stamped with a makers mark
