Day 2: Sunday provides more Coppers

[Colonial Copper Zeus]

Day 2 was similar for us in the bean field. We had an early start and were swinging mid morning. A beautiful fall day here in Pa. The leaves are at their peak in color and it was very enjoyable to be detecting with the temp no more than 73 degrees. I decided to start very close to a troublesome annoyance. Anyone who has done many farm fields probably can relate. Electric fence. With the rythmic pulse in my headphones it can be difficult to pick out a good signal from the electromagnetic audio throbs. I strive to persevere through it because of the benefit of a virgin area. The farmer did tell us in the past that he could turn it off for us but I don't want to risk the cows making the big break because of us. Anyway 20 minutes into my hunt Bam. A penny dime reading again on the analog proves to be my second KG III for the weekend. A couple of buttons and pewter spoon parts later I found my 180? Draped Bust half cent. That's my third D.B.halfie this year. We are awaiting the farmer to finish harvesting the corn so we can get back in another pre productive field again. He said probably in 2 weeks so we will be doing more research and permission missions this week. Thanks everyone .

Chris,
AMAZING!!! Pretty soon you'll have a whole roll to turn into the bank.
Are those other two gibbons detecting too or just watching you dig them up?
Great finds!

Thanks Doug...We do have a great time and yes the coins are piling up. I'd bring my camera with us but the pics and vids would be so funny that they would end up being most viewed on Youtube. I'm glad some people can enjoy a good laugh everyonce in a while. It seems to me that more and more people these days are getting ripped off by not inheriting the humor gene. I really feel sorry for them because with all the turmoil going on in this world I feel it helps to have a good laugh everyonce in a while

Chris,
I totally agree. I've always loved humor and joking around. It keeps you young at heart. I learned from the king of comedy himself, my Dad.
We actually buried him last year with a joke telling Rodney Dangerfield toy of his and a copy of Young Frankenstein. Rodney was one of his favorite comedians, and he loved that movie. We must have went to see it at the theater 10 times.

I notice in the workplace too that some folks would just as soon turn you in to HR than be able to laugh at a joke. It really makes for a dismal environment for all.

I'd much rather take Frank's advice:
"For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!"
-Frank Sinatra-

Enough bad in the world today not to at least have humor in ours lives as a relief.

Amen to that Doug, You should see my family get togethers. Very large Italian family always breaking out in spontanious laughter at the drop of a hat. As for work environment I work at a place where we only have 4 employees and we all get along nicely. I am in charge and i'm the one who hired all of them so I got to pick and choose during the interviews. I try to give each and every one of them the respect that they deserve as individuals and not harp on every little mistake that they sometimes make. I got along so good with one of them that within 6 weeks of hiring her I asked her to marry me and we have been going strong now for a year and a half. She actually supports me in my hobby. It certainly helps that I found a Keepsake diamond ring with 23 diamonds valued at $1600 and gave it to her. Now when I am leaving to detect she kisses me goodbye and says "Now go out there and find me another one"

Derek......What it is my man....What a streak I've been on. I can't believe the year so far. It's like CKK has been on an excellent adventure or something. And you are 100 % correct, there is nothing worse than scheming cows. Well maybe goats are worse . These coins are just flying out of the ground . You notice I changed the letters around? ( CKK) I can't believe all the half cents I've been finding this year. We should be hitting a new site this weekend if everything falls into place so keep reading our posts and keep swinging that coil of yours.
