I had a dream coin hunt today, 2nd best in my 11 years of hunting.

[Deno]

Me and the two Jim's got out to a old site today. The very first signal was the 1839 Seated half dime. I was ready to quit and go home. About five or ten minutes later I got the 1825 Liberty Cap dime. Next thing I know Weaver found a large cent. We are thinking what the heck, about a hour or so later I found the CAROLUS.III Real, then Weaver found another large cent. Poor old Armstrong, he got skunked, he only found a few buttons. I can rib him like that because him and Weaver have spanked my butt for as long as I can remember. Weaver's picture taking abilities aren't that good, I am a whole lot better looking than that.

I forgot to tell you guys about this, I may owe this hunt to KY Shooter and the man upstairs. I read shooters
story about saying a prayer before every hunt and I thought what the heck, It's going to be part of the plan
from now on.

Nice hunt, but I think the Man in the Sky has more important issues than to grant you a wish like a genie.

I would tend to agree with you if it weren't for the results.

I have a felling he may be able to multitask.

Multitasking ... I like it.

Deno, if you would only invite me over to help you hunt that field, we could say a little prayer together.

N.J., December 30, of 2007, I found the 1806 Bust Half dollar I use for my avatar.
I will never forget either one of these days. I will give you all my secret.
Hunt old spots, check out the old maps in your area, ask farmers in your area if they
have ever noticed old broken glass and bricks and such when they plow. It's out there,
you just have to find it.

Thanks for the offer Shooter, I know you would. I guess you have dug everthing there is to dig
on your side of the state. I think we are going again Saturday if you wouldn't mind putting in
a good word for me.

Great finds!!!
So the trigger looking thing is for a candlestick. I found the same thing not long ago. Is it brass? has a nice looking patina. Was it a handle? How was it used?
thanks...

Monte, I am not sure what it was supposed to look like, I can't find any pictures.
Armstrong knew before I even cleaned it off that it had screw holes in the wing
looking things, he explained that it was made so when you got done carrying it
you could sit it down.

 

[Deno]

Thank each and every one of you for looking and your comments.
Good health and good luck to all of you.

[mcmurphi]

Outstanding is all I can say; but is it possible that prayer AND the cap you were waring that day was just the ticket? I would like one of those caps!

That's a great hunt Deno which is going to be hard to top.
Congrats to you, I'm surprised this hunt isn't on the banner.
