This subject brings up awful memories , I never hit anything real valuable , but recall many certain nice dropped Minnie balls I have hit over the years 1 was 20 years ago (almost). When I hit Minnie's I usually re-plant them .

I've had a few buried in pots for almost 3 years now.

I've done the most damage to my coins after I dug them .....Well 1 mostly.
