HELLO ALL,
US BONE DRY GUYS WENT TO ONE OF OUR FAMOUS COLONIAL SITES TODAY. THIS SITE HAS BEEN STARTING TO DRY UP WITH VERY FEW GOOD TARGETS LEFT. HENCE THE NAME BONE DRY, WHICH IS THE WAY WE LIKE TO LEAVE IT.
IT WAS ABOUT 8:30 A.M. AND ABOUT 25 DEGREES OUT, KIRKPA, ZOYBOY, VPONE AND I ( PACO ) MEMBERS OF BONE DRY DETECTING BRAVED THE ELEMENTS. VPONE AND I WERE DRESSED FOR THE WEATHER, BUT THAT WAS`NT THE CASE FOR THE EVIL TWINS,OR SHOULD I SAY A PAIR OF GLADIATORS. IT WAS SO COLD THESE 2 PROS HAD VERY LITTLE ON. NO GLOVES, NO HATS, WITH JUST T-SHIRTS AND PULL OVER SWEATS.
KNOW BODY WAS GETTING MUCH, LIKE I SAID WE HIT IT HARD IN THE PAST. BUT I MANAGED TO DO OK TODAY. I SLOWED MY SWEEPING MOTION WAY DOWN TODAY AND IT PAID OFF. I GOT A REAL NICE HIGH TONE THAT HIT AROUND 30 VDI. WITH MY DIGGING SHOVEL, THE TARGET DEPTH WAS ONLY 2 INCHES. I SAW THE COIN IN THE FROZEN PLUG. IT WAS SHOWING ME TAILS UP, AND I THOUGHT, DAMN , A FREAKING INDIAN HEAD. WHEN I PLUCKED IT OFF THE PLUG I SAW HOW THICK IT WAS. I SAID OK NOT BAD , A FATBOY I.H....... BUT WHEN I CLEANED IT UP ON MY PANTS I SAID YEA BABY, MY FIRST FLYING EAGLE CENT ( 1857 ). KIRKPA, ZOYBOY AND I ALL DID A BONE DRY DANCE. WE WANTED VPONE TO JOIN US , BUT HE WAS OUT A FEW HUNDRED YARDS AWAY TO JOIN IN. I MANAGED TO GET 5 ONE PIECE BUTTONS BY THE DAYS END..........PACO, BONE DRY DETECTING :)

Nobody is ever going to accuse you of not setting lofty goals Kyle. With the sites you guys have researched it doesn't seem unreasonable. If Dan can find over 600 silvers, you four guys can get 75 coppas. ;D
 

Hey Paco,flowing hair silver or a chain cent sounds like the thing to me!!!! Whatcha think bud? Acheivable? I definitly think so.Time will tell. Bootstrap
 

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR REPLIES, WE DO HAVE OUR OWN WEB SITE AS YOU CAN TELL. IT IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION. WE WILL BE COMPLETING IT VERY SOON. WE WILL ALSO HAVE A VISITORS MESSAGE CENTER WHERE YOU CAN POST YOUR REPLIES ABOUT OUR SITE. ALSO WE WILL HAVE A HUGE PHOTO GALLERY FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE, AND OTHER DETECTING LINKS AVAILABLE.....

If we obtain permission for one of these public houses, we could hit over 50 in one field. :D Hmmm...could this zoyster be dreaming too much? :D

Liberty cap large coppa would be a first for me too so that sounds good!!! So far draped bust has been the best I could do but we can always hope for the chain right? HH Bootstrap
 

Paco,
That is one cool coin, I could see why you would initially mistake it for an Indian Head Penny.
Your technique sure paid off.
Hope you find many more.
