I have found plenty of pocket spills in my time but all were modern clad.
This time I came across a nice one.
I have only dug 2 Indians head cents in my life so today was exciting.
I got a jumpy signal but still heard a few nice tones so I opened a hole.
Big root running right down the middle but about 7" deep on the right side I find a 1901 Indian and a 1915 really wrecked wheatie.
Poured the dirt back in but rechecked it before I moved on and a few inches away about 3-4" on the left side of that root I get another signal so I dug that one too.
This time a 1902 IH comes out of the hole, checked again with the PP and one more signal so took a little more dirt out of the hole and find an 1887...and the best looking coin out of the whole bunch.
Made it into the 1800's early this year...hope that is a good sign.
I set a goal to dig more older coins this year now that I have the F70, even with very limited hunting time due to the weather the year is still starting off pretty good so far.
