Thread: A couple of hunts.

    A couple of hunts.

    Back to the old 1868 house yesterday. Very tough hunting but I was able to dig this Buff. Date is worn, but I can see a "9" in what appears to be the last position. Additionally, I dug a 1958 Canadian Silver Dime out of an old School yard. It's not that old, but I'll take it!

    Thanks for the comments, everyone. We just went from 60 degrees and no snow a week ago, to a bunch more snow, so the Nox will sleep until it warms up.
