I have not been able to detect much this summer. Too many things going on......

This weekend I decided that I needed a few days to do my thing.
Saturday I hit an old farm that has produced a few nice things in the past, including my first 2-Cent Piece. Not too much there, 1919-S Wheat Cent and a small cuff size Tombac button.
This morning I decided to hit another spot that I have hit a few times before. This time I turned up the sensitivity and really slowed down. Lots of trash here and it is hard to find the good stuff. My third hole of the morning was a faint signal, kinda deep sounding. I dug and from about 6" out popped my first Seated Dime, 1875-CC. Well worn but a beauty!! A few holes later I got another signal that at first sounded like another bullet case. Sooooo, expecting a brass bullet case I was surprised to see this really nice 1864 2-Cent Piece !! This is my third one so far. Cleaned up kinda nice too.
I will for sure be going back to this spot when the weeds die back a little more.

Here are the pics. VPR
