Minelab Excalibur (Sword Model) Tesoro Cibola (With GB Mod)
I got out with my modded Cibola for a couple of hours this afternoon and found a few miniballs, but the highlight was this 1856 half dime. This is an area I have found numerous civil war items. I was trying to think outside the box and decided to detect on the side of a step hill. My logic was that soldiers could have sat on it for a look out and maybe they dropped something. Looks like they did as I found this half dime. What is amazing to me is the good condition this thing is in. The only cleaning I did was running just a little water over it.
