2-25 -11 Hi TN , Temps in the high 50's , I returned to the reliable farm field yesterday . A quick two hour search , turned up some square nails , clay pottery shards , bone handle knife blade , musketballs , 2 colonial buttons ,two lead bale seals , a copper or brass tag :icon_scratch:

and a 1769 one reale , :headbang:

nice silver but worn. :P Dodging wind driven rain and 40 mph sustained winds and 55 mph gusts with lightning but still a diggin' good time . Heading back Sunday .Thanks for taking the time to stop in , CMD dawg

Congratulations on the one reale, it still has a date. Wind and lighting, it probably seemed like a sunny day. Arty

8) As awesome as that coin is, be careful of the lightening. Since the odds are that I'll never find a coin that old around here, I do enjoy watching you find them.....

Judging by the depth of the hole, that fisher really reached down a bit to give you that signal didn't it? Very nice.

Outstanding finds!!! :thumbsup:

Thanks Mike :icon_thumleft:

Fishers love moist soil and I dig faint signals with low or sometimes zero disc . No id on the X it's all about listening to certain tones , hits tiny buckshot and copper at crazy depths, it will get down .
