I managed to get my best condition draped bust yesterday and a couple of nice buttons. Ironically the large cent and the buttons were in a cow pasture and usually my pasture coins and buttons are in very rough shape but the dirt was kind on these. This was the first time that I have hit this field and can not wait to get back. The friend I was with got two dandy buttons

Most of my pasture finds are really toasty too because of the acid in the soil. You have a nice field to detect and had a great start. That draped bust is a real winner. I hope it keeps producing for you.

Keep swingin.

That draped bust looks pretty pristine! Nice find! The only one's I have found have been totally wasted and barely identifiable.
