Made it out yesterday for a afternoon hunt. I started off solo then took a break and went and got the kid. Things were slow for the first hour not finding any coins or any keepers for that matter, just junk.
Batteries died in the detector so decided I'd change batteries and hit a small section I hadn't hit then find another site.
Two minutes in the new section I get a good 82-84 hit. Dig a plug and have a 1875 seat dime.
I then found 6 wheats, a buffalo, and a flat button.
The kid hadn't had a good hunt for awhile so decided to make a 5 minute drive home and pick him up to finish the hunt.
When we got back told the kid I hadn't hit the section below where I found the seated. He headed that way and 10 minutes later needed help digging a deep target straight under a couple huge roots. I thought for sure he had silver but, after 20 minutes of digging turned out to be a LC. A little bit later in that same section he pulls out a bucket lister, 1851 trime. Only other keepers for the kid was a 1968 dog tag.
I found a couple more wheats, another buffalo, headless lead soldier and a tiny silver bell. The bell is only the size of your average marble but, marked Sterling.
