​Hi guys,Just got done with vacation.. And I what did I do of course I went metal detecting " cubs and copper's hunt"
I started at a Boy Scout camp and mid Ohio was about 8 of my friends in the area and a few from Kentucky as well... The first camp had a lot of history old.. We stayed Friday Saturday and left early Sunday.. Silver wasn't flying out of the ground but there was quite a bit found I and the two silver dimes a Mercury and Rosie..(but some the other guys did better than I did) The oldest coin found with a seated dime I also know there was a half found some silver quarters,standing liberties and a lot of cool Boy Scout paraphernalia...




On Monday me and my friend Kevin went on a field not far from where I live in Ohio.. pulled in to large cents and an Indian head...
On Tuesday we went out in the rain and hunted some fields in Ashland Ohio.. And I pulled 1913 British penny and a1871 Indian head..

Old Boy Scout camps are always a treasure because most Old tents hand NO floors. Great Hunt Wisconsin Digger

Thanks ill digger,
I haven't seen a fork like that either. I was thinking maybe a cheese fork or some kind of meat fork???
