Just skimming the surface is what we did this evening with coins literally on top of the ground! Doug and I went out for a couple of hours last night to hit a site I found last month that is under construction. That meant easy digging and in some cases no digging at all. We started out with a few wheats and a Canadian George penny. Doug got the first silver a Rosey and about 15 minutes later I got a 1924 Merc. Just before we had to go Doug came across another Rosey in the surface dirt and to top it off on our way back to the car he got another one in the same manner. So he ended up with 3 Roseys and wheats and I got the Merc and 11 wheats oldest being 1911 and a couple of nice marbles.
