Wow what a great 2 days of diggin! Yesterday hit up my old standby that usually produces 1 indian or so each trip. Got an 1884 indian, 1903 barber, 1887 Vnickel, and a 1904 Vnickel all within feet of eachother. After nothing nothing but 22 shells. Then went out today with the mother and she sure brought good luck. Started at a trashy field and decided to go get permission elsewhere(Which is usually a daunting task) First field that looks good had a for sale sign on it and we called the number and the guy said SURE go ahead! Wow thats a first. Its about 30-40 acres of easy diggin. Long story short found my very first Seated silver(1876 CC!) wayyyy in the back field along with 5 or 6 flat buttons. She found 3 Indians (I think one is a flying eagle its fat but cant read the date or see much) and a few buttons. Also found a 1909 barber dime on the way back to the car. Found a super old looking musketball also. Couldn't ask for a better day and bet we'll be back again!
Also found 2 bell/windchime things that look real old but not sure about them yet....Thanks for looking!

Fantastic Finds! That is the second CC mint coin I saw dug from that town in the last two weeks!

Sorry I have not been able to get out to join you. It was time to give the basement a good cleaning. Maybe next time!
 
The coins are great but the bells are clutch!
The crotal bells I've seen are generally round (jingle-bell style) but I would not be surprised itf the ones you found were for the same purpose.
Wonderful finds.
 
you have a great location there that is really producing. I am very envious, finds like that are few and far between here in the midwest.
 
Congrats on some very nice finds, the bells are definitely cool looking! :icon_thumright: \
