Two hour hunt, two cents.

[Kas]

Found a new farm site to hunt this weekend. I'm stuck on these old farms. A new house was built on the property, but an old foundation was behind the new house.

Didn't have a bunch of time to hunt,only a couple of hours. We've had some rain and the ground is much nicer to dig, and the soil around here, Ohio, is nice and loamy.

Anyway, the area was trashy, lots of metal, so I put on the dd shooter coil. The 1853 LC, is real nice, sharp detail was at 5 1/2 inches, the wheaty was about the same, a 1918.

I get back there tomorrow, and take a few pics of the area.

Yep, thought I might clean her up a little more, but I think I'll leave her as is.

No, but you're right. I'd rather dig two old coins than wear out me knees on five bucks worth of clad.

I'm on the western side of Ohio along I-75, middle of the state. We've had enough rain to green the grass up again.

The digging is much better.
