Snow has melted away due to the rain ,so I have been trying to hunt every moment possible before the ground freezes.
Hit an park in a older neighborhood that has been very good to me in the past about noon. The ground cuts like butter since the snow melt and AP's great knife really works slick. After a few odd ball clad and my never ending variety of rusty metal, my signal hit really strong. At 2 inches I flipped up this little beauty. And you all know that of course I had my first large cent.....haha....nope ....Not to be.....Employers of Wausau Saftey Award ...Presented in recognition of your contribution toward the conservation life,health and happiness. I gladly accepted my award! :) This was from one of the first business's in Wausau ,given to employees at the end of the 1800's.
