Finished work early enough to get a hour in close by. It's been warm enough for a lot of the snow to melt and the digging is perfect. Started off crappy but the last half hour I got on a good patch. I got two large cents(1896,1905), a vicky British half penny which I took the date off hitting it with my shovel,1963 silver dime and a 1919 silver five cent piece. Also got a nice plain silver gilt livery button (back has a crown, six stars and says "best quality"). Also found something strange that may be part of a old purse top clasp. Thanks for looking!

I dug some really nice ones before but for the longest time now the places I've been going have super terrible soil that just rots them. I guess finding a rotten large cent is better than finding no large cent! Haha

It was wet and windy here too but doable. I got another super cold snap coming but it should only last two or three days and then be plus temps again. I hope! [emoji2]

No fair! You get to live in Canada AND dig in January? We're going through extreme cold warnings -40/-45 right now haha!

Congrats on your winter finds, great to be digging large cents and silver!
