    Boy that war nickel does have luster on it Nice hunt, especially since you got that big silver I haven't dug a half in a long time All that trash over the years is covering up all them early coppers Nice job on getting permission. Word of advice don't eat the fungus lol

    I agree with Epi. Very nice hunt. I dig a lot more junk for a lot less keepers. Good job.
