Sunday afternoon at a new site

[Michiganne]

Hi all:

Sunday being Mother's Day, I was excused from dinner duties so I headed over to a new site I just received permission to hunt. It is a home site dating back to at least 1873. (and only 4 minutes from home!) I hunted for several hours and found lots of relics and some clad but not the hoped for old silver. It was almost time to head back home when I dug a 1957 Barry Co. dog tag....a first for me. I was happy with that and even happier when my next (and last) signal turned out to be an 1881 IHP, my oldest IH yet. My 8 YO son had the fun of reading the date off it and did the happy dance for us.

Thanks for looking and HH,
Michiganne

Very nice Anne. You are digging some old stuff there, spend some time there and the coins will keep coming. Talk to you soon.

Great hunt and finds Anne [thumbsup] big congrats on the nice looking Indian, I love finding them dog tags as much as the coins. I've found one dated 1896 and that's my oldest yet, I've also found 2 different 1900's.
