LC and silver - fall hunts 11/18/15

[Michiganne]

Hi TNet folks,
I haven't posted much this year -- too little time, too many hobbies. I've gotten out a few times this fall and had some fun digging. I'll let the pics tell the story.

HH and thanks for looking,
Michiganne

One Saturday did a group hunt with fellow MDing club members at a local fairground.
Found this Buddha(?) jewelry piece and 3 wheats, oldest being 1912.


Hunted a friend's yard one Sunday and found two silver.


This past Sunday hunted one of my field sites, an alfalfa field which is cut shorter than it has ever been.
Former late 1800's home site.


Dug this 1848 LC...I was happy.

Beautiful LC. None of mine look anywhere near that nice.

You may not be getting out often but when you do, ,
You're bringing home some quality coins. Congrats

Very nice looking Large Cent.

 

[Nepa-Will]

Real nice LC. Still hoping to find my first. Congrats?

That's a nice LC for a farm field dig. The few farms I've searched offered up completely roached coppers from the fertilizer. Congrats!

Yeah, not sure how the fertilizer missed this one, but I'm not complaining.

Nice condition on that large cent!

Ohhhhh! So that's what a large cent looks like with detail showing? I've found three and have to stand one one leg, face the window with the light coming in over my left shoulder, and tilt the coins at a specific angle just to see what may possibly be a head. I really want one that's pretty like that one. Great find.

Yeah, it has been a long time Anne,
Glad you took the time to post in today's finds.
Looks like you had a good time, and that's what counts, EH ?
friends, Silvers, and a LC, what more could a girl ask for ?

Ha ha! Yes, not all mine are this pretty. I have one that lost the fight with a plow and was a taco shape before I straightened it a bit.

No snow and ground that stays thawed all winter?

Thanks, Rick!
