Back to the harvest, after work

[daytondigger]

Short hunt today, Mark found some flat buttons, the holy grail and some antique nails . We traveled to the end of the field and back to where we had all our luck before. I hit a nice repeatable coin signal and thought I had another largie. The area was littered with iron signals. I shoveled a bunch of dirt out and scanned the hole. It was out, I looked down at the loose dirt and saw a square nail, you know, an "antique" nail. I thought that stinks (expletives deleted). But once I picked up the nail and rescanned, I had a solid coin hit. I used the sunray probe to quickly locate a small cent. I've dug two civil war tokens from this area this week, so I thought there was no way it could be a third. I envisioned a nice flying eagle cent. I couldn't resist the urge and wiped one side down to reveal a lot of writing. A third civil war token, this one from Watertown, Wisconsin. Rated R5, it's my rarest CW token.
