Size:  132.2 KB I had noted for several years that Del seems to love to roam around sites. I know he's looking for hot spots and he always comes back with coins and buckles. They are magnetically attracted to him. Anyway, for the past month I have been doing much more roaming and it has paid off. This past Sunday, Del showed me that he can do it either way as he found a copper that I literally missed last year and left it laying in a cellar hole for him ! Great find my friend! I followed some walls at our last site way out into no man's land and was rewarded with an 1838 Large Cent and an 1864 Indian Head. Both coins were just laying there next to the walls waiting on me and.................watching me.Name:  1838 Coronet Liberty Head Large Cent.jpg

    Wow Donnie, That reverse has some serious detail! That old Indian does too...too bad it's bent up. Pretty site you have there! I love hard wood canopy right on the hole...great all year. "Summer Time, and the Swinging is Easy!" .
    Dan is the master. Period. You get a "playing lesson" every time you go out with him. Congrats on some sweet keepers!

    Donnie B, you looked into the soul of that cellar hole and discovered its secrets. Just be careful you don't get sucked in, never to return. In 100 years, Dan's great great grandchildren will be out detecting and find your belt buckle at that cellar hole using their family heirloom DFX.

    In a few hundred yrs they'll be excited to find early 21st cent detectorists loses...like my pinpinter, and the belt buckle I lost from my pants one time.

    Somewhere in the mountain laurel in Connecticut is my Lesche Tool. Some future archaeologist will probably find it one day and do electrolysis on it.
