College has kept me pretty occupied lately, but yesterday I was able to get for a fall break hunt in the fields near Lebanon PA! The property was from the 1850s, now a dairy farm, but I maganaged to pull a classic head and a draped bust large cent, along with a flat button! Sadly, the coppers are worn out, but oh well! I also dug an 1868 shield nickel the other day up at college, so that was cool! HH everybody!
Great coins! Eat mor chiken!
That cow is giving you the stink eye. Bravery in the face of belligerent bovines will usually get you a few good finds :thumbsup02:
Nice finds Luke , no need to ask "where's the Beef ?
:lol: @ the other comments! That nickel is in nice condition, Luke!
You gotta love that college schedule...I never thought about detecting when I went...I don't think anybody else did either back then :lol:
Wtg on the old coins! Love the 5 Center!
very cool pic of the LC in the corn stalk!
Nice 5 center. It looks fairly well. As long as you could stand the smell by those cows. Lol. I refer to a nearby town as the cow Shhh capital.
You know.... that first summer I had off school (and still had work but summer hours usually go down despite people taking vacations) seemed to last forever. There was so much time and It would have been so great to have taken advantage of it. And those breaks and days off like Columbus day which I don't get at work.... Too bad grad school, which I only did 6 credits for but will get back to it sometime soon, doesn't help anything. I still have the 40 hr work week. ugh.Quote:

Congrats
Congrats on those nice finds-those coins look really sweet! Cows? I don't see any cows-all I see is steak, rare!
Great job Luke! A copper is a copper in my book so congrats. Definitely the time of year to hit the plowed fields. Shield nickel is in good shape and your best find IMO. Keep it up.

That is a great day, nice Coppers and a Shield is always nice.
