Got out for a nice hunt with Pulltab Steve in some local woods we never hit before. Towards the end of the hunt got a nice 80 VDI at 6 inches and pulled a Draped Bust large cent form under a root. It's pretty toasted so I can't get a date 8/. Found some nice old bottles too.

DanA pocket spill of a roll of pennies is all I got. Im sure you can relate
Mike researched the history of these woods, I didn't want to dig all the goodies. But I did mark some good signals with my secret decoder ring for when we go back. I still had a fun day out in some new woods.
Mike, you sure are on a roll! Love the LC. Keep it up buddyhappydance02
Having fun is what it is all about!
nice find!
Nice find. A large cent is my ultimate goal. Don't know why, just caught my interest. Thanks for sharing.
