The Illinois boys are coming to Connecticut...it's a midwest invasion!

[Ill Digger]

Back home now. First off I wanna say Thank You! to Lee, Al, and Dan!
Thanks to Lee and Al for taking us to some of their prime hunting ground!

While hunting on one of Lee's fields the first day I dug my first large caliber musket ball!
Hunting Al's colonial farm field I dug my first ever dandy button!
And Dan, for taking us on our cellar hole excursion!
My legs weren't thanking you so much. But after 5 days of watching the other 4 Illinoisians digging 1 or more large cents or coppers, thanks to Dan, I finally got my coil over my very own copper!!

And my NEW OLDEST DUG COIN !! 1730 King George II

Fresh out of the ground




After cleaning and a light oiling.




I wanna thank you all again for making the trip just what I was hoping for! A chance to find things that I don't have a chance to find here in my area. I hope someday I can return the favor!
You guys rock!!
