Just gotta keep looking

[patiodadio]

I finally got a chance to explore some really rough country since the weather had gotten cold. Much too snakey when it's warm. A friend and I walked about a 1/2 mile or so to some rock cliffs on Tygart Creek. Very hard to get to. Right away I found a great spot, anyone looking for a nice place to rest and look at the creek far below would sit here. Right away a I got a hit, steady 78 / 80 on the ATP. I thought wow, this has to be something great ! It was a 1980 penny ! Bummer ! We made our way around the cliff and found a pretty large overhanging rock house. I got a great signal between two rocks and thought again, whoa, this has got to be good. It was a coin spill, but all clad from the 60's & 70's. :sad smiley: I had a great day and came away with the thought that my meager finds could had just as easily been something great from Boone and Kenton's time. Just gotta keep looking.


This is where I found the penny

I've had similar experiences in places like this. Usually my finds are shot gun shells...lol
