Good Morning T- Netters,

I was able to get out for a 3 hour hunt yesterday in an area that I've combed through before. Its an old site, but the finds there have been very few and far between.I was very happy to dig what I believe is an 1818 Matron Head LC. Its a little rough, but not bad for a 200 year old coin. The Mercury dime is either a 1920 or 1929, and based upon its somewhat milky color, survived a forest fire during its time in the ground. Thanks for taking a look. HH.
