Well i must say this is my best find so far :hello2:
Went back out to my favorite cellar of all time.. last year we pulled over 120 buttons and relics off this site :icon_thumleft:
This time i brought the 5 inch dd coil :thumbsup:
I was sitting here thinking about this site and realized i never hit around the cellar with a small coil :icon_scratch:
So off into the deep woods i went..Right away i started pulling buttons left and right i couldnt believe
what i missed me and my friends have hit this site hard..
Right outside the stairs was a medium sized tree i found a Largie next to last time :icon_thumleft:
I was scraping the leaves away and hit real close to the tree and locked on a solid 79-80..
When i flipped it out i thought it was a foreign coin because i could see writing along the edge but was like wow this is a big coin :icon_scratch:
Then i brushed the dirt and seen the word "President" and immediatelly knew :o
My heart was in my stomach and i paced in circles looking at it :headbang:
It does have some damage and is missing the shank but hey,im stoked 8)
I included some finds from this site last year
After all the people i took here i am so glad i found it :wink:
This is why we do what we do :thumbsup:

jb, that is an outstanding find, Banner for sure.

You need to keep that small coil thing a secret.
I was thinking that too :laughing9:

Awesome find! I have been wondering what kind of signal it would give 79,80. Those are great digging numbers, again fantastic find and banner vote is in!

Gotta like that. I wouldn't worry about the slight bend, and the shank really doesn't matter... it's a good one!

Great find! :icon_thumright:

I would go back there and hunt all metal and dig EVERY signal until there wasn't a single blip of sound left.

Then................I'd get myself a MineLab 5000 and start over!! :headbang: :laughing9: :laughing9:

Excellent GW button, excellent finds & excellent colonial site! Some of my sites have continued to produce for three or fours years. I was wondering if there are woods surrounding your cellar? If there are, i would certainly start moving out into the surrounding area(s) for as far as I could go.

Great old stuff! The GW button is high on my wish list of things I would like to dig. That's a banner find all day long. You got my vote. Congrats! DD.
