Hi all.Well I got me a goodun today !!! I headed out this morning early.First I whent to the old school to see if I could get a silver fix......nope.But I did find 4 wheats and a buffalo nickle.I then headed to another site.I've Had a couple of guys searching this site WITHOUT permission lately.I arrived and saw that the claimjumpers were there. Well as usual I was polite and chatted for abit with the one fella.....nice enough guy.I then wandered over toward claimjumper #2 As I got close I heard his machine give off a good tone so I wandered over to cheak it out.He dug a very nice draped bust LC.I congratulated him and wandered off.After awile they left and I wandered all over the place with nothing to show but some clad a flat button and some pulltabs.My back was aching pretty good so I sat in the only shade around witch just so happened to be close to were claimjumper #2 had found his LC.I got up and started searching around that area when I got a wealk signal.I sat down to start digging and noticed there was allready a plug cut. I could tell it was one of mine as I cut a C plug and the claimjumpers just tear into it. So I'm thinking what the heak did I miss something.I rescaned and found that the strogest signal was about 10 inch's further along.I cut a new plug ....dug down about 11 inches and found a 1787 Fugio cent. My buddy Dano found a Fugio a couple of years ago and another earlier this summer......one more and we'r tied buddy !!!!! Time flies when your having fun !!!! :wink:

They don't make 'em like that anymore. I don't have to tell you that's an amazing coin!
 
AWESOME!!! CONGRATS ON A AMAZING COIN!!! :thumbsup:
 
Excellent! I imagine it'll have to be cleaned up a bit before any attribution can be made. May I suggest a water pick or something similar? Anything where nothing comes in contact with the metal but water- lol!
