Lara, au4me, Moe, Dan and I decided to take advantage of a beautiful day to have a last minute hunt. What a perfect day. Not expecting much we hit a field down by the river.

We are pinging along and au4me starts screaming he has found pottery and glass shards, Lara and I have to go over to help him out or he will definitely start pouting ;). Moe gets a god signal and I had to stay to see it, some sort of tag (tool tag) 436 on it, nice. Au is getting antsy so off I go to help him out, lots of old pottery. Au pops out a nice button shank still intact says "????? Gilt" on the back, nice. Then he screams jewelery! Very nice Lady's pin. He is now whining saying there has to be old coins here, ;) we need to date the site. I remind him Dan found a 1983 coin? :D Sure enough Country Girl gets a coin........at first we thought it was an 1885 INDIAN HEAD, nope 1865, in great shape! A first for me and I was thrilled!

Moe finds a nickle, but it's in real bad shape, we are thinking V nickle?

We are finding musket balls, Dan one, then Lara, they are actually older than a musket ball, help me out here Scott? I found a fired musket ball that hit a solid target? Pretty mangled.

So au4me (Scott) starts in again, there has to be another Indian head here, at the same time Lara screams INDIAN HEAD! We all just started laughing. Nice 1902 Indian. Yeah Lara!

We had a ball! Tyler went with us and ran back and forth checking out the finds and reporting back to the others.

Thanks for the great day!!!!!!!!

P.S I did fid some rusty crustys :D

Hey CC,

You out did us big time ;D

The Mrs & I went out today for a while....she found an old wrench...and I found nothing but junk!!! That is the second time in a row that I have been skunked....no coins, tokens or even artifacts!!! Yikes...I'm getting too old to hunt, lol.

Opps....P.S.,

I did find a good Zippo lighter in the parking lot at Walmart yesterday :D ;D
 
Looks like a great outing, & fun finds.

Fossis............
 
I'd rather share the site and meet some great people than hunt it alone. Friends are the best treasures.

Timber, that usually sounds like my days. But at least you and your wife got out together. Nice!

I'm just funning with Scott, he is allot of fun and is full of knowledge, he'd be picking on me too! :D

It was a great day!
 
Great job on those injuns! I bet the 1863 IH is thicker than the 1902.....love those Civil War era "fatties"
 
Now that's a great day in my book...Sound's like it won't be the last with all those goodie's.Congrat's to you all!!
 
nice hunt! Ya have an old site there! IH's are a good sign! :)
 
Great time, great friends and, a great Indian-Head!. . . (don't you love it when you're twenty years off trying to read the date on a coin 8))
 
Hopefully there are a few of us back there on Sunday. The IH is 1865 so it was a year off from a fatty, but I do like the skinny little guy :D. Yeah as long as it's in the 1800's i don't mind being 20 years off, the top of th 6 almost touches which at first looks like an 8, Lara noticed it was 65 first. Lara's 1902 was sweet one too!
 
Hey CG,Nice outing,sounds like you all had a great time!Keep searching that field it sounds like there may be more goodies in your future!! Congrats Bootstrap
 
I wish I could have been there Sundays SU** For Me stuck at the Dam Flea market MY GF and her mom with out me have no way to get home :'( :'( :'( :'( I Hate The Sunday Flea market ! But love God and the church ;D
 
Congrats on your Injun! Stupendous! Sounds like you guys had a great time...make sure you do it again; bet there's more stuff there.
 
Congrats on the get together. It's always nice and then you scored a great coin! What more you want??
 
I'll deffinately be back there, Sunday is the game plan. Hopefully we find some more great things, you never know. The TN folks here ae great! I am so glad I got to make so many good friends from this site, thanks Marc for bringing us all together :).
