Made a few hunts through the Christmas week and found a few nice finds. Yesterday I was almost at the days end and I thought I had just dug one of those lead heads to a roofing nail and I didn't want to dig the signal but when the plug came out of the ground the signal had a far better sound . It was giving a penny dime sound and was I excited to see what it was. My first half dime. 1853 o half dime. I'll include a pic of the handle of a salt spoon and some type of old silver jewelry I found. signals diggem all... LaGold

I was really surprised at what kind of shape that IH came out, I've dug a couple wheats at the same site that was super crusty. My half dime was found at another spot about 130 miles south of the other stuff but I had a great time finding all the stuff. I also have a few CW bullets and a couple flat buttons along with part of a lead sabot from an artillery shell found at the IH site that I didn't put in the post. I had an great couple of Christmas time hunts.... Hope all you guys did too. And happy new year to all of you
