    That is very generous of you lee. I' know we would all love to meet you and do a little hunting.

    Thanks, Don

    We are getting close....I will have next Tues-Wed=Thur off. I have spoken to one of the farmers and he is cool with having multiple diggers on his property. This field I have gotten Ct copper, 1/2 cent, IH's, newer silver, some great buttons. Lee got his silver dollar here and Trooper bri got his 1st colonial copper (counterfeit).

    Tim, I am pretty sure that the field I took you to where you got the LC is also available and right down the street is another field(park) where KG, LC, seated, and the MA militia button came out of.

    the field where all of the CT's have been found, I have not spoken with the farmer but I am sure he would not mind three of us there.

    Call me if any of these sites seem worthy....413-454-3718
