Last Saturday began by Chris and I going to Kippy's (Skip's) to pick up a treadmill that Chris bought off of him. Chris and I hauled it down the steep steps with ease! Next stop after that was Skump's, a favorite sub shop hangout for the members of KKC for years. Kippy bought us our subs! I ate mine in about five minutes. I'm a man, so I eat like one.
After that, Zeus and I turned up the tunes and headed to our next destination: a Colonial farm in PA where we were seeking to obtain permission to hunt the hay field/pasture area. After receiving the "A-OK," we headed off back to our respective dwellings with hopes of digging some earlies the next day.
Prior to walking into Zeus' dwelling before we left, I took a snapshot of the "stuff" in my car that you would see on a hot day on the PA frontier!
We got to the site and eventually started popping some buttons. That is when the landowner came over and chatted with us in the field. I told him the history of his land and asked him about some nearby fields. He said that he owned them. That is when I grinned, because I knew there are at least three more vanished dwellings on his land. We will probably find unwritten dwellings as well, so the future is looking bright for us. Here is a picture of the site we hunted yesterday.
After the owner left, he turned off the electric fence that was near the field. About five minutes later, I got a deep sounding "P" on "Penny" reading on my analog. I looked over to Kirk and said, "I have a deep half real signal here!" After digging down about six inches, I saw a sight that I live for: a large copper disc just fell from its resting place back to the bottom of the plug. And, guess what, I had the joy of looking for it...again! It turned out to be a smooth Colonial copper! It is porous in some areas, so it is definitely a counterfeit. Here it is right after I dug it.
Long story short, we will head back after he cuts the soybean in the adjacent field. That is where the dwelling sat. We were just hunting the fringes of it yesterday.
Here are my finds from the hunt.
