    Our Best Finds 2013

    Here are our best finds for 2013. This year we changed how we hunted concentrating more on old farm house's and fields and while quantity was down the quality of our finds was enhanced! Great year for Indian Heads I got 20 and Diane got 6 both highs for us. I also got my first 2 Fatty Indians 1859 and 1862 a 1869 Two Cent Piece and my first Flying Eagle Cent 1858! Also 5 Large Cents for me and 2 for Diane. My oldest silver a beautiful 1845 Seated Dime and my first Seated Quarter 1853.

It was the best 3 memorial cents I have found this year! Best wishes to you and Diane for 2014 and if everything works out, Tony and I plan to head that way again. Dave.

    Great finds Tony and a good decision to switch to some older sites. Quantity goes down, but quality goes way up. Hope you and Diane have a super New Year.
