Went out to a site today that me and my buddy nicknamed "The Dump" The dump is a bean field slam full of chopped up aluminium and iron. Pretty much a relic hunters nightmare! Anyways, I managed to pull out some keepers. Best find of the day was a 1721 piece of Spanish pie. Haven't found any cut silver in awhile, a really nice surprise! 11-20-16 062.JPG 11-20-16 063.JPG 11-20-16 064.JPG 11-20-16 065.JPG 11-20-16 068.JPG
