3 Coppers & a Huge Bell
Got out to my old virgin site. Seeing it is on a rise it dries out pretty fast, so after all the rain we got I figured I should hit it up before it would dry out.
Was able to sneak out 3 more coppers (KGII, KGIII & some other KG). Also got 2 more buttons, part of a shoe buckle & the biggest Crotal bell I have to date. It was only partially buried.
On a side not I got a hydration pack for my back pack, man is it so much better than carrying water bottles.
HH!

that one probably "gonnnngs" like Big Ben.Yea, this thing is HUGE. It's a #2, so a #1 must be even bigger. I'll have to see if I can post a video with the sound.
This site has been very good to me, about 10-12 coppers, 25-30 buttons. I got my 2 oldest coins here: 1663 1-Reale Cobb & my 1694 W&M. It's getting pretty quiet here, so I went further out & was rewarded.
