Coppa at the "Coronet Field"

What's up, fellow metal detecting enthusiasts zoysters? Well, let's get to the metal detecting story.

On the day after wednesday of last week, I was skunked...and I mean skunked.

Well, we headed back to the Coronet field on the day after Friday of last week! This day turned out to be great for me, considering that I recovered an 1826 Coronet cent at a depth of 3 inches. This beauty read at the "R" on "Quarter" on my 90s-style relic machine. After recovering this babe, I instantly yelled, "LARGE CENT. LARGE CENT. LARGE CENT," while running around like a hyper-active kid who forgot to take his ridalin.

Well, to make another long metal detecting story relatively short in a metal detecting time limit on a metal detecting site with metal detectorists reading this metal detecting thread, we welcomed another great member into our club: vpone. Vpone, welcome to the club and we are looking forward to many great recoveries with you in the near future for "Bone Dry Detecting."

In 4 metal detecting trips, we have recovered 13 Coronet cents, 1 Draped Bust cent, 1 ancient Colonial, and an 1835 Capped Bust half dime. Folks, that is what I am talking about! Mr. Walter would be proud.

*My coin was found on extreme private property with the total consent of the two sweet landowners.

thanks again zoy - you guys are GREAT to detect with, remember for the past few years I've been detecting all alone, so it's nice to find stuff and be able to share it

thanks again buddy !

Wish i could find one of those that wasn't corroded. Actually I wish I could find one period.

Congrats Zoy, nice to be back to the old hunt sites after this dry summer. Gary and I are going out this Friday, hopefully we can dig a few more IH's and maybe some silver and maybe throw in another LC or two.

Nice one Zoy

That looks like there's a nice one under the crud.

Thanks, man, for the reply! Tomorrow, we are heading back to the field where I got my 1700 coin. Hopefully, this zoyster can pop out another ancient coin or relic from the historic soil.

Just when I start to catch up, it looks like you're going to pull away from me again. Thats OK, I like it when you guys pull out coppas because then I know to look forward to some humorous, entertaining posts. Good luck on Sundee! I'll see you guys sometime before noon. (See Kirks post) LMAO!!!
