I was detecting the Colonial homestead this morning/afternoon and wasn't getting much luck, just some clad. Then I hit an Indian but not in very good shape. Could barely read the 18_ _. A few minutes later I get a very small signal, but a good one and I'm thinking it's some kind of nothing because it's too small to be a coin, just one pass of the detector and then it's gone. I get whatever it is out of the hole and in the small dirt pile, it was very shallow. I pull it out and it's tiny, maybe 3/4 the size of a dime and almost paper thin (I thought it was a hammered coin), but I clearly see the big "C" on it with III inside the "C" -- sweeet! My first 3 Center. The back is almost completely rubbed away, I can almost see the whole word "United" along the edge but that's about it, aside from being able to see the outline of the star. It seems to have been worn away along all the edges and on the back, but the front is pretty clear. However, it won't photograph well with my crappy camera. I will have Earthworks do it this week and will post it. His always come out well. Crackhead report for today -- three crackheads were at the site. Did not have any problems with them.
