Hi everyone. I got out with Dave Wise and Rick Yingling on Sunday for some cellar hole hunting. Danny LaMontagne gave us permission to hit a hole that he had never been to before but looked interesting.You just can't have a better friend than Danny. That turned out to be the best hole of the day. My wife bought me a Garrett AT Max with the wireless headphones and wireless pin-pointer for Christmas.
It didn't take long to make one of my best finds ever. My very first target and first hole with the Max was a 1798 Draped Bust Large Cent!
Before Sunday, my oldest US Copper was an 1803 Draped Bust. It's tough (in my opinion) to find the 1700's US coinage as you only have from 1793 - 1799 for years minted. Plus, it's in beautiful shape! Thank you Danny!
