Well finially I got out and do some good old beeping again after a long winter :icon_sunny:. First thing I had to do is drop off some mail then headed down the the park and see how much snow was left. To my surprise :o almost of it was gone so I stepped out a walked it to see if the ground was soft or hard. Well it was muddy and very wet which I like :icon_thumleft:. So I headed back to the car and started off. Not long and about 10ft from the car got a good signal in the qrtr range. Silver baby silver 1898 Barber :hello2:to be and also gave my buddy Mike M a call to see if he was heading down later to which he did later. Not long after that I thought I got a 1863 Fatty but wasn't for sure what it was till I got home. It was a CW token of some type but still needs Iding. Its a Indian head type with 1863 date and GRO CER on back with wreath around ???. I say not bad for being stuck in the house for 4 month and no beeping. Also 2 reg pennys and a 2000 D Sac $1
