I've put in 3 hardcore days of diggin' before this storm hits tonight and tomorrow and it's paid off! Found the 1871 shield nickel, spencer bullet, brass buckle and bale seal on the first day to get things started. Second day I had a double silver day with a 1907 barber dime and a beautiful silver thimble along with a couple CW bullets, some lead and a nice fuse!! Today a buddy and I hit an early site that dates from mid 1700's with activity on through the 1800's. I ended up with 15 colonial and 1800's style buttons, a nice 1859 indian head, a beautiful and nearly perfect 1864 2 cent piece and other neat odds and ends. The GR Patent thing is cool and the one piece has an eagle on it with "J&M" underneath, anyone know anything about those? I guess I got my fix in before this big snow storm. Until then thanks for looking and HH!

Thanks. I may just go stir crazy with this snow on the ground. It is hard knowing you have a good spot but can't go back!
