Wow, another first for the Noobz. I have been on 3 hunts now with friends that decided to pull a 2-center. Well I was by myself today knocking doors and I got one for myself. I started off at an old Mennonite home. The owner gladly gave me permission to detect the yard. After getting pelted by acorns falling off the tree from the wind I got a nice 1941 Quarter. A little later I got the cool looking Lewis & Clark Centennial Medal. Its 1905. I left there and decided to head to the nearest town to get something to drink and I passed a house that just looked like an amazing spot to hunt. So I said screw the drink and turned around and got permission. I was nailing coins left and right in the yard. NO CLAD AT ALL..I couldn't believe it. Well I got the dime trifecta with the first 3 holes I dug. Next came a nice little 3 Indian pocket spill with the amazing 1884 and semi-key 1868 Indians in it. A short while later I got a wheat signal and out popped my 1867 2-center. I took so long to dig it out from under a root but well worth it!! This yard was huge and took forever to cover, but what a great day. Knocking doors is the way to go!!!!

that's the good stuff.
great day out. nice 2 center.
 

Did you notice that on the reverse, the inner writing goes clockwise, which seems quite normal, while the outer writing goes counter clockwise. Glad I hadn't been drinking when I tried to read that. I went all googly eyed as it was.
 

All in one day, EXCELLENT, :headbang: ! Some very nice finds there Nooberz, those would be great for me all in one week or a month, WTG!

What a great day of digging!! Door knocking does pay off sometimes. :coffee2:
 

Hope you plan on spending some time with those IH's, with hot peroxide and toothpicks. Those look amazing!
 

Impressive hunts! Great job!
 

Awesome hunt! You really did well... That medal is very cool... I've never seen one of those before...

I was going to post, "there aren't any old coins left in Ohio". But maybe there are.
