My Best CW Relic Day & Dman's Best Coin Day This Yr-Gold Eagle "I" Button-1801 Coin
With Doug & Josh unable to hunt much right now because of Josh’s work hours & Doug’s business, I made a solo hunt to a U.S. picket post. Thanks to Tennessee Digger & Wayne J., I had a good idea where to hunt in a large field. The bullets ranged from a .44 cal. ball to several .69 cal. 3 ringers. I dug 2 .50 cal. Smith Carbine bullets. My best find was a coat size U.S. Infantry officer’s button with some gold gilt remaining. I wanted to get to 200 CW relics for the year before the grass gets too high to hunt but came up 6 relics shy. My finds before lunch are in the first pic and my after lunch finds are in the 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] pic with the huge chunk of lead on the bottom.
Doug called and I gave him an update. He had a couple of hours and hunted an old home site near his store so he could be close by if needed by one of his employees. He found a lot of coins and other relics. He said it was the “oddest” house hunt he ever had. The coins ranged from a 1901 mint date copper coin to year 2000 Sacajawea Dollars. The large holed 1901 copper coin is a British penny as i.d.ed by Argentium & Crusader (Thanks guys). The last pic is my eagle button. This was Doug’s best coin day this year and my best relic day in 2013. Thanks for looking & HH, Doug & Q.
