Wow! Lots of driving today! Only talked to 2 people (lots not home) and got a yes at the 2nd house. Nice 1830s house netted me 1 and 1/3 large cents. 1832 on the complete one and 1843 on the fragment of the other one. 2 Washingtons and 3 roosies (85 silver fty) 3 wheats, and a flat button. Then went to my cornfield for an hour and found one flat button and a piece of a hinge. I went to the field because that's usually how I close out my detecting year and I'm not sure if I'll get out much more this year if at all. Either way it's been a blast this year! 20171128_162354.webp20171128_162254.webp20171128_134753.webp20171128_162238.webp20171128_162222.webp

Very well done Chris. You got a couple of coins that have been lawnmowered!

Thanks for sharing, and hopefully you can get out another time or two before the BIG freeze hits Yankeeland.

Best to you brother!
 
Nice keepers on the silver and large cent! Congratulations on a nice hunt!
 
Nice!!! sweet stack of silver you got going on there from one hunt! that cut large is sick too as is the other one. Still one month to go , but if thats your last hunt you went out with a bang this year!!
 
That's a good day congrats on all the keepers
 
Nice LC, nice silver! Well done, congrats and HH
 
One would hope for a little older silver on a site that aged, but I wouldn't be complaining at all! Nice hunt and grats.

thanks Tom! It's been one fun year but I'm not quite sure if I can get out anymore with the holiday coming and lots of work going on. By the way I don't think the large cent was lawn mowered unless they had power mowers in the early 1800s lol!! I guess I'll just have to live my winter detecting life vicariously through you Southerners. Good luck the rest of the year!

Outstanding finds!!!!
 
Congratualtions on the excellent hunt! :occasion14:

Love the old coin shooting!
 
Great results from the hunt, liking the silver and the cut LC, strange way of cutting it up.
 
Nice finds cjon. Pretty good for a last hunt if it is indeed your last one. For some reason I have an affinity for cut LCs. I remember finding two LCs at a site once. One was intact and the second was cut. I offered the intact one to the property owner and kept the cut one.

thank you Professor! I was hoping for an Indian or to possibly a barber, but I won't complain

thanks Evolution, I never found a cut LC before. This one is definitely unique I looked around like crazy for the other piece but couldn't find it, I'm sure it's there somewhere
 
Nice job on the silvers al LCs. I'm certain this WON"T be your last hunt this year :laughing7:
 
You had a great day today....good finds pulled out at the end of your season. Well done!

thank you Steve! I sure hope you're right because I've had a lot of fun and don't want to stop
 
Great to see you are going out with a bang Chris. I bet you'll get another hunt in where you pull another fist full of keepers.
 
Great finds and I hope you find more time next year. Just finish that dang house already!!!

Beauty finds and I’m glad to hear you’re getting some permissions

thanks Kevin. The area I was in doesn't have too many people detecting I think. The amazing looking property I hit right on a main street had lots of high tones, dare I say "virgin ground"?

Great finds and I hope you find more time next year. Just finish that dang house already!!!

Thanks Steve! The major building at my house is done. Just tinkering with renovations room by room now. Much easier than building an entire 2 story addition yourself
 
Dude killin it,,, good job!!!
