    3 7/8 Cents ....the hard way

    I hit a cellar hole site this morning that I swore I wouldn't go back to. I think I first hit this site 7 years ago. But its close by my house and I've wore it out. I only had a few hours this morning so once again broke my promise to my self and hit this site yet again. I've been skunked many times at this site over the last few years, but as they say, you never find everything.

    Anyway.... first target.....a clipped 1847 Braided Hair in good shape right out of the ground.




    About 30 minutes later I dug a 1851 Trime, also in good shape.



    The trime came from the cart path that I hunted a 100 times with every coil and setting I have. Still scratching my head over that one.



    A few other finds including a big @$$ tack buckle



    It's an odd bit of pocket change, but I'll keep it. The LC looks dried out below but it must be the lighting. It still looks like the top photo.



    I've only been out a few times this spring but the ticks seem to be in short supply this year.
