Hello All,

Two months late, but here it is...it was an awesome year for us! I didn't get to go digging as much as I'd like, and our silver total suffered with the lowest total yet in a year down here (only 18 silvers dug)--BUT we got some incredible relics, including two that made the banner here!

Best finds were my Civil War ID disc (Banner), my wife's solid gold, monogrammed sewing thimble (Banner), Shangalang's whopper 2 Reales and solid gold fountain pen nib, as well as his first two cent piece and my first three cent nickel. Here are some highlight photos from the field:

And here are the display cases...first off, my beach finds from 2019:

Very very nice! I have to say that the big silver Mexican coin and the gold thimble are my personal favorites. Keep on grinding!

You guys knocked it out of the cane field. I always read every post from the "Cane Field Bandits". Never know what you will show. Hope 2020 gives you more time to spend in your hobby.
Good luck guys/gals.
