Hello all!

The last 60 days of my life have been busy busy busy... Been to Wichita, Tulsa, Salt Lake City, Houston, Dallas, San Antanio, and Mesquite for work... Then Back to Dallas 2 weeks ago to see the Cowboys... Lots of family over for the holidays...

ALl that being said... I've not got in much detecting lately... I did get my new DF PI, Waders, Scoop.. and ventured into the water for 60 minutes... that is VERY different from land detecting...

So SundayI had to drive my Son back to Boston this AM and stopped in the town that yielded me the 2 Large Cents from the same hole...

I recovered a few early spoons, a wheat, some clad... then a keeper appeared about 45 minutes in...

1907 Indian Head Penny...

1936 Mercury Dime...

I was almost 3 hours into the hunt what this 12/45 12/46 @ 6" BANG BANG signal popped... Turned 90 degrees... same... This sight has been pretty worked over... how could this have been missed??

1832... Or so it looks to me... Cap and Rays Real...

Nice recoveries Paul. I'm sure that reale saw a lot of circulation here in the USA before it was lost.
