    Nice ones. I've actually been thinking about doing the same thing here, but have never gotten around to it.

    Great looking hunt Dave! Finding three Buffs in one hunt is a feat in itself!

    Not me, I still like to find the other stuff. Those Buffs are in better than usual shape. Next year I'm gonna hunt a lot of different locations. Love the colonial stuff, but sometimes Indians and Mercs are great!! Love the designs of most older coins. Great hunt by the way Dave thumbsup01

    that explains all the excitement you get (yells , dancing and backflips lol :hand fist pumps ) when that zincoln memorial appears at those remote colonial cellar sites , ya i almost forgot how much you like something a little different now and then .

    I still get a kick out of finding IH's, old nickels, and silver of any year. I'm glad I have never lost that feeling, even after all these years.

    i'm pretty content finding indians (their a great target to be missed) but i'd rather dig buttons than wheats unless their in the early teens . alot has to do with the area i'm searching though if i go to a colonial site i expect to find coins around that time period , i feel robbed if i dig up a wheaty now if i go to a park those would be on the menu along with mercs, barbers,and of couse clad and i could handle that .
