Memorial Day Weekend Hunt '13

Got out to NW Illinois to do some hunting.

Besides my first US Plate, that I added on another thread, here is what I found....

1889 Indian Head Penny, and 7 wheats at one location. Also got what I think is a Sterling Silver spoon there. It was very dirty and black. It cleaned up nicely, thought it was junk before I cleaned it. Another location in the same town gave up 2 wheats, but I didn't get to hunt it very long, so planning to go back there later this Summer.

I also found an Arrowhead in my Uncles field. Best one I've found so far!

HH all,

Seawulff
