the fruit of my labor day, '86 variety 1 IH, '09 "V" and a cool buckle

the IH was 8" down masked by iron, variety 1,Liberty is full and for a dug coin appears to be at least EF condition with a Redbook value of $140, the "V" was 1" down under a tree at curb line and the buckle again masked by iron. running the ace250 in all metal with no discrimination has been rewarding, I hover the coil with micro swings and get amazing separation from the iron targets.I dig any target that comes off iron even if it doesn't repeat. in most areas I use jewelry mode but this site is loaded with old deep iron. got my 1888 IH this week that was IMG_0174.webpIMG_0175.webpIMG_0176.webpIMG_0177.webpIMG_0178.webpIMG_0179.webpIMG_0157.webpIMG_0158.webpIMG_0149.webpIMG_0150.webpIMG_0151.webpIMG_0147.webp14 inches down with three rotted square nails above it. 20 minutes of roots and rocks later out pops the Indian. also got my NYCRR keys and tag at 8 inches also surrounded by iron. the SCHRADE knife has a current bid of $9. this sure beats digging 5 hours for 6 bucks in clad

wow, you are really working that 250. great finds, congrats on the great work
 

Nice hunt and that site appears to have really mild soil also which helps all the finds out, that buckle is also a really neat find have never seen that one before !
 

Thank you for sharing that fun dig and those pictures
 

Coins are in nice condition, like that old key too..
 

You continue to make fantastic finds, Rich. Save some for me and Steve when we get up there.
