Ended up having time for a real short hunt, but my new spot produced! Got a barber dime at 7", the Franklin at 2"!, the barber quarter at 5-6", and the Merc at 3".

This site is all over the place with depths and iron, but keeps producing. The quarter is a semi-key with under 1 million produced. I'm happy this spot is dynamic and should have a lot to offer in the future.

Happy hunting!

Steve

Nice to have a go to spot that will consistently produce silver bud. Idiots like me spend hours hiking through the woods just with a small hope that I might find some colonial treasure. Nobody ever said I was smart. If they did I sure didn't hear it lol

Lol. I should figure my count out. But a feast one day can easily be famine the next. After three hunts I may leave this site a little while and start some new places. Go-to places are always nice to have in the back pocket (famine).

I love colonial sites but early is hard to find around here. Almost as hard as finding time with a job, wife, and kids. Lol

Well considering I haven't found a damn thing since the beginning of January you must have a very low opinion of me right now. I'm gonna do my best to change that in the next couple weeks

That's better than hiking through the woods with hopes of finding a IHP or one silver.
