We got out Thursday for a short hunt, weather was nice, went to a field that we have had good luck at in the past and found that it had been turned. A bit tricky walking I found a button but we decided to move on and wait until some rain comes to wash down the ruts a bit. We went to the field where I got the three Large Cents the other day and I got a nice 1865 Indian Head and a fancy but smushed suspender buckle and a nice little gilt button.
