    Thanks Drew! I'd say between Frank & I we've recovered close to 100 buttons as well. Happy New Year my friend!

    Nice hunt! Those Pileated woodpeckers are about as common as Liberty Caps around here. I've seen just a few over the years. Heard a few more. No mistaking that jackhammer sound on a quiet early morning out in the woods. Nice pic!

    Oldest coin: 1699 William III halfpenny
    Purdiest coin: 1832 Capped Bust quarter

    Congrats on #100. Still looking for #1 for myself. Nice picture of the woodpecker. You can hear those guys tagging a tree miles away.
