Hunted the dreaded field this morning.
I call it that since the digging blows hard. It's full of fist sized rocks and not much loam.
I have found silver there in the past so said what the heck.
I wasn't on site for 10 minutes and found a 1939 Wheatie. I figured I was done since this site is
notoriously stingy.
Ten minutes later I got a shallow hit that rang in as a memorial cent, I dug it as always.
Out of the hole comes the 1898IH. It's the only IH I've found with any detail. :o
I thought to myself what a day. I filled the hole and rechecked it nothing. One foot away another
175 on the meter shallow, bam the 1868IH with detail. I almost fainted. You just don't find IH's
around here that have detail.
I recovered and started swing back to the car as I had to go to work. Ten feet later not only did I
get another IH but a fatty! I didn't even know they existed until I later searched on this site.
I was a mile high. Almost at the car and another hit down deep.
It was the key.
Man no silver, but it's got to be one of my best days ever. :thumbsup:

Thanks for looking and good hunting to one and all; drinks are on me.

Not sure why the soil is so kind to the coins around here but, thank goodness! Great job on your fatty! :thumbsup: Should have caled in well and kept at it! :D
 

I like those injuns, they're always fun to dig. Fortunately, many of the areas I dig in Ohio are very kind to Injuns. I've dug some nice ones, including a spill with 3 fatties.
 

Looks like your doing great with that Sov GT. I love diggin injuns. Congrats
I've never dug a Fatty
 

Nice injuns.
The only fatty I've found so far was dateless.
Great digs! Congrats.
 

Nice looking Indians you got there. :)
 

And so now, you've got to rename that field! :icon_pirat: Maybe... 'Indian field?' 'Fatty Field?' 'That's OK If It's Full of Rocks Field?' ;D

Awesome finds, Radar! :thumbsup:
