[Leon]

Hello all,,,
Well, I sure can tell it's spring, I've been way too busy lately...
I did manage to get out a few times in the last week, or so, and find a few keepers...
The first item found yesterday was this "PUSH" button.

It was found at a depth of about 8" down at the cache site. Not sure what it was used for, but it seems to be made of a chrome plated brass and is very heavy for it's size...

The next item found was a No-date buffalo nickel. It's in pretty bad shape, but I'll take it...

This 1909 ( No V.D.B. ) was found at a depth of only 5". It's not in too bad of condition for it's age...

Also, got out last Friday and found my second IH for the year. It was the only keeper for that day. It's 1900 with a nice patina on it...

I don't mind staying busy, but I've been too busy to stop and smell the roses here lately. I hope you all have had some luck, & Happy hunting~

P.S.> Almost forgot about the "States OF The Union" token. I found it yesterday also, after getting back out just before dark.

It reads. "South Dakota" at the top, with a picture of Mount Rushmore in the center, and "States OF The Union" at the bottom. The other side has " Missouri" at the top, an outline of the state and the great arch of Saint Louis in the center, and "States Of The Union" at the bottom, also... It was found at a depth of only 4" down and was giving a very strong high-tone signal to the Cz...

Thanks all,,
It's good to just get out to hunt, but the older coins and the token made for a nice day...

Nana, I have pushed, and pushed, and nothing seems to happen. I think all the time it has spent in the ground may have broken it...

Looks like a nice old site! Or are these from different locations? Maybe some barbers lurking, just waiting for you?

Nice digs!

Thanks Jim,,, This site has already been very good to me. It gave up a cache of [8] silver coins last November. Most of the coin in the cache were Barbers... I have also found a few other halves, and many other older coins at this site. If you haven't see them yet, you might take a look.

Hey Bigrig,,, wish I would have gotten back to the post a little sooner, but it doesn't look like too good of a day for hunting around here... Hopefully your already out hunting, beating all the rain that's coming this way... I got a letter from the Down N Dirty Diggers yesterday. I hadn't planed on going, but davedigs is ready to go, so if I can come up with the extra cash, we may end up going to it again this year...

Hope you all have had some great luck,,, & Happy hunting~
