Haven't been out much, and have not posted in awhile.
In the last 2 weeks, i have managed to get out 2 times. The first time, i got a couple barber dimes and mercks. Some IHs, and what I believe is the top of a silver match safe.
Today was a different story.
I had a few hours to kill, and I was close to a spot that has been sooo good to me over these last 2 years.
My choice today was to pick a hot area and dig everything! I mean iron and everything.
Well, it worked out!! Alot of work but it worked out. I cant believe how much is still in this place being masked! I bet I haven't even scratched the surface???
All these keepers, and not 1 great signal.
Lets take for example the LC. It had 4 pieces of round iron in the hole.
When the LC popped out I was dumb founded. Like, NO WAY??? LOL
Anyway just wanted to share my experience today with my peeps. Haha.
This is why there is soooo much stuff still in the ground.
The capped is a 1827, same as my half I dug in the summer. The 1/2 reale is 1800. The LC is 1837.
I even found a Canadian LC, and a young Victoria 1872.
The Louisiana tax token is really cool
And I always like fatty IHs. Its a 1863.
Thanks for looking, and it goes to show, DIG EVERYTHING if the site is old!!!
George

I'd love to dig everything, but I think I would lose many permissions. I doubt if they want their yard to look like a WWI battlefield or an archaeological dig site. You are the man when it comes to great finds. I swear you and Scrappy have to be related somehow. As always, awesome finds, loved the post and pics. Keep it up, I will need some dirt fishing porn to view after the ground freezes here in Ohio. :notworthy:

I knew you were going to try to get out this weekend, and it looks like you managed to kick serious butt once again. I haven't seen a silver dime grand slam for a while...capped, barber, merc, and rosie?! That's awesome, and a Spanish silver to boot! Nice coppers, rings and I like the little key too.

I agree with digging everything at an old and productive site. If you spend the time to dig it all you WILL be rewarded.

Good job George

Thanks Mike,
Definitely worth it, if its the right sites. Man I didn't expect this kind of say. I was hoping for 1 keeper. Kol

You dirty stinky weasel! Damn you George! That is killer brother. This reminds me of a story. This guy had a site that he knew should be great. But it was full of trash and iron. He spent the better part of two years cleaning it up. He didn't find anything good for the longest time. Finally he got all of the crap and iron out and lo and behold he found several early silvers and other great items. I firmly believe that if we took our great early sites and cleaned them out we would be shocked at what was hiding in there. We are just too damn impatient and always believe the grass is greener elsewhere. Btw I will call Ya tomorrow my man....I mean lucky jerk lol

Dont be calling me names..
Thats not nice..
Yes patients is a virtue.
And that is something im lacking. .lol
And what are you going to call me tomorrow???? More names?

Just stunned silence up this way...wow. Ok, words have returned! I can only imagine the satisfaction you feel with what you've made happen after just a couple of years at this. Your hunts are inspiring!

I was waiting on you to get back in the groove George, and you certainly did that in a big way. I don't think I've ever seen that many different silvers dug from the same site in a single hunt. And congrats on adding another Spanish to your collection, and thanks for giving us renewed hope for our pounded sites. Super hunt!!!
