Howdy Folks. Returned to the nasty clover field with various other vegetation getting in the way. I had my little Nel Snake coil on to make any attempts to swing a tad bit easier. Located the trashiest spot of the field and began to thrust and jab my coil into any spot I could muster a little wiggle of a swing. Got some scrap brass, an old brass "grommet", HUGE lead object, mangled fork, Schrader Universal Valve thingy, a brass do dad, and a real SHOCKER for me and very nice 1876 Philadelphia Seated Dime. I was quite pleased as I might only have 4 Seated Dimes now. I knew this field would hold old coins but, swinging it is a challenge to say the least. Looks like it's worth the hassle though. Thanks for stopping by. Kurios1

It's a nightmare to swing right now. Hopefully once the clover dies and the rest of it things will be a little better. Also the river runs along this field and I plan and getting into the woods along there as well. Used to be one of the cities dumping sights for trash way back in the day. We used to rummage through this area and find old bottles, spoons, and other weird stuff. They bulldozed the trash and put in a baseball diamond. Stuff got spread out all over the place. Could be some more coins in this mess!
