Large Cent Today

[mike l]

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.

Congrats on the Draped Bust Cent :clapping: You can't get a date off of it, but it still is in decent shape. At least you know it can be no newer that 1807 lol Nice looking bottles too. I'd hit that area near the cent and work my way out!!

Ooooh nice finds Mike! :clapping: .....old bottles... :drool: I'd love to dig a pit sometime, never have.

Love the terrapin :smitten: We have lots of them here in our neck of the woods. Did you know the males have brick red eyes and the girls have cream-colored eyes?

I got skunked Dan... A pocket spill of a roll of pennies is all I got. Im sure you can relate :grin: 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 buddy :yes: happydance02 :clapping:
