Got out for an hour this morning between rain showers. Only dug two older coins, a 1902 Indian head cent and a rough 2 cent piece. Don't think either will clean up very well. The IH has some nice detail but the reverse is real bad. I'll be lucky if I can get a date off the 2 center. Those are tough to find around here in good shape. Out of the eight I've found, maybe three are in decent shape.
