Call in the Coast Guard

[ironhorse]

You know it's been a while since I posted some finds, I just haven't seen too much noteworthy until today!
Happy to get out digging again with Iron Patch recently and walking down some fields. Some weren't the right ones but a couple yesterday were exactly the right ones!

We got permission for a couple of new fields in a great early area. IP found the site by grabbing a decent Rev War pewter right away so you know anything great can show up.

And..something great did show up...pretty nice 1782 2R!
I think it's been well over a decade since I've last got one those; but really any Spanish is awesome.
We moved on the next place and first signal...bang...Coast Guard button! A new one for me!
I really thought that we hit another great site but it had a lot of junk and the few coins I got there were only last century large cents so the buttons age didn't sync with coins so that place needs a little more attention.
We ended up trying a couple of other fields with little or no success but I did pull out a George ll copper right by the edge of the road on our way home so there's another good reason to get back out there!

Thank you Gary
that reale was way down there too
best part of a foot I'd say
now that was a hole that could of captured a pair of diggers at least!
we didn't need any help from the coast guard that time even though we were only a stones throw from the creek

I hope to see you getting some good ones too

I can't recall seeing another posted here but I know of an other digger that has found one in our area
they are around but really obscure
great to hear from you
thanks

Yeah man, I've been away for work on the deep blue sea and haven't hunted in 6 weeks. I'll be doing a Keys hunt this weekend with another Tnet member with a water new machine. Anywho, any idea of the age of that awesome CG button?

Crusader put a 1830s timeframe based on the crown device used
I can't argue with that , it's pretty much what I expected it would be
