Finally got my hunting season started a week or so ago..
I have been hunting a site that I started last fall,an old ghost town of sorts,the town was moved/abandoned back in the mid to late 1800's,nothing remains today...
Over the winter I obtained permission for all the connected properties of the original 80 acres I started on,which totals around 320 acres...so lots of hunting for years to come...
I have been concentrating on the main town site for the most part and have several nice recoveries.
Find below my unearthed treasures from the last few hunts...Enjoy HH Soup

Awesome finds! I'm still waiting on my first Capped Bust.
 
Great site opportunity :thumbsup:
Sweet coins and I'm thinking that's one rare token :hello2:
Looks to be in good shape, Congrats!
 
Hey Scott, those are some very cool finds! :o
I love the 1834 Capped Bust Dime and the 1864 CW Token! :notworthy:

I look forward to seeing what else you find when this winter finally ends! :laughing7:

HH,

Thanks Dave,Dug,umrgolf and HISPAN as well as the rest of you...
I look forward to all this site has to offer over the coming years...
The Token and the Capped Bust are my favs so far,although the Louis Phillipe I 5 franc from the site is a top contender as well....It has been a great start to the season ,here's to great finds for us all in 2011 ... :occasion14:

Have Fun Out There Folks

Thanks Jesse,It was alot of fun diggin them,I thought the CW token was a foreign coin out in the field,it was a nice suprise to find out what it was upon returning home, the capped bust is another first for me :thumbsup: I sit there for quite awhile after diggin it...
