    Copper, Silver & yes MORE Buttons!

    Got out today to my new old site and branched out further. Nabbed 10 more buttons today. Got a nice 1802 DB as well as a 1958D Washington laying right on the surface. I really love the basket button, which I think might be silver but not 100% sure.

    Totals for this site are: 33 buttons, 4 LC's, 1 IH, 1V & 1 Silver Washington.

    HH & 4th!
    Roger

    Wow, A DB on the surface! Oddly, I've found far more DBs than Washington quarters. Keep working that site!!

    Thanks Guys! The DB was in the ground, it was the Washington that was on the surface. I've hit it as hard as I can for now but need the ferns to die off to explore new areas.
