2nd hunt of the year

[pepperj]

It's been one strange year for getting out to do some digging.
Yesterday I had to get my turkey's into the processor and it's only a 10 minute drive over to some permissions.

So I finally got onto a school site that has had crop rotations and kept missing the window of opportunity.
I did a little over 4 hrs on the field before heading off to pick up the birds.
I managed 6 LCs a Fishscale, buckle, Jingle Bell, and odd and sods.

After picking up the birds I went for a drive over to the gold coin permission. The field looks worked but it was too far away to see if it was ploughed or just disked. (certainly a return trip is being thought of now) The rest of the main sites were under corn and a few were good looking since they transitioned from grass back to beans.
I stopped or an hour at another permission and grabbed another older Jingle Bell, a door bell, and a 1884 LC.

Well you all know what I'm going to say...ha, another bell?! Good finds all around but c'mon...another one?? 😂

Actually 7 for the day, which puts it in the top 5 for LC recovery totals. Had a 14 and a 11 at one other permission.

It's amazing that you found 11 and 14 Large Cents at other sites !
The most I ever found at one site was 6 - but that was from several different hunts.
Took me 18 years to find a total of 56 Large Cents.

I've found a few over the years.
