Last weekend my finds included a Monopoly hat and a Barber half...today the rains stopped and I found a Barber quarter and a Monopoly race car...AT A DIFFERENT SITE!!:shocked02:
After the rains ended (remnants of Michael) I headed to the park I did so well last weekend to find they were having an event, so I headed to a corn field I know was just cut. I went with trepidation as this was the first site I brought my Nox to when I first got it. Nearly a year ago I bombed out. It is massively mineralized..nothing like other sites around here...but I KNOW there are lots of 1880s to 1930s coins there. First thing I did was dig and put a quarter 7in down in the side of the hole, covered it, and experimented with settings. I learned some stuff and went to work. 90 min later I had two wheats, the Barber quarter, and a colonial button (they turn up everywhere :lol:). Actually, I've never seen a tombac like that one. It looks like it's the concave bottom of a two piece. Hope you're all enjoying the weekend!
