I was finally able to get out this week after a long hiatus (for me).Friday morning I hit a super old site near my house and then a second newer one after lunch. I only found three nonferrous targets at the first hole. A late Victorian fork, a shot gun shell, and the dateless draped. The second hole gave up a dateless buff, a few small tack buckles, 2.5 Conestoga bells, a large cork bottle, and my second Canadian LC of the summer...a 1910. Friday was just gorgeous! Thanks!

Nice score on the draped. Too bad it's a bit toasted. I had the same issue with my hunt yesterday with the non-ferrous targets. It makes absolutely no sense how I would be able to pull up a few targets that are high VDI at a site but no coins. The finds and/or non-ferrous target amounts dwindled the deeper into the woods I went.

Oh, I'm done with Canada Jim...that was just a week of reflection on our pleasant neighbor to the north. TonyTwo-Cent could elaborate if he wishes
