Today I found time to go back to different section of wooded hillside near where I found all my keepers this year. I got a 88-90 signal on my AT Pro scanning a pile of deer sh*t, I was like "What did this deer eat?". A couple inches under I unearthed my first Walking Liberty Half in surprisingly great condition. Thanks for looking :headbang:

Awesome find, our W PA woods are full of droppings, I'll have to start digging all those high tones even if it means getting seriously dirty...

Yeah, those deer nuggets are easier to handle, and I have issues with that freaky skull face thingy you got goin' on there.

I agree! I sent my gf a text last night describing it as a "gorgeous coin" and she laughed at me. Haha she doesn't get how hard it is to find these especially in above average condition.
