Had a relaxing day at a new site I was given permission to hunt. I went directly to the back side of the 22 acres that butted up against the river to begin my hunt. The first hit was the 1796 Liberty Cap large cent followed by the intact watch winder. A few buttons and allot of lead took me into lunch. While I was eating I watched this lime green tree frog jumping towards me. I grabbed my camera as he leaped onto my shovel and climbed onto the top of the kick. He froze when I approached and stayed perfectly still for a neat little photo shoot , a very cool guest. The New Jersey copper was fried but at least it was identifiable. More buttons and lead buckshot with a bright signal right in the middle of the lead infested area. The 1824 capped bust dime came out looking like it was just dropped. After finding fried copper coins and buttons the silver made the day even sweeter... Art
