Great bucket list item. Would love to check that one off.
 

Very nice. I dug one in Virginia January 1. They don't come any better than the one you have there.
 

I bet that one had you pumped when you saw it in the hole. Nice job!
 

Congrats on a super plate, she's a beauty!
 

Excellent! More US history saved from the ground!
Great piece for a personal museum display :treasurechest::thumbsup:
 

Thank you yea this one was my very first and it was dug in central VA as well just today and it was almost a foot deep and It wasn't still in the hole in dumped a plug out it broke away and I saw that back and knew right away. :) thank you all very much I will be going back out tomorrow hopefully another post will be on tomorrow Happy hunting everyone
