First coins found in '09, A IH and a Barber
Hi all, got out today in Sunny Ohio, was only 36 degrees today. Started off hunting a muddy school house site. Didn't find anything there, was just to hard to hunt. Headed for one of my old favorite spots a Ghost town. Hunted a church site that was a bean field, lot easier to walk.
My first hit was a 1881 Indian Head Penny. Then went on to find usual junk. Found a core sample, some sort of buckle, think it might be off of a horse harness some sort of metal and some sort of Brass something, not sure what it is.
Then started to head for the car and got a funny signal, but hey a signal is a signal in a field.
I dug down and turned over the mud. Saw a edge of a silver coin. It was a 1901 Barber dime, now that made my day.
I had a pretty good day, even though the ground was really hard and cold. Top layer was muddy.
Hope you all had a good day, I think this will be my last hunt for awhile, supposed to have freezing rain then turning to snow.
