Cold digs…..

[Mike from MI "Iron Brigade"]

Went out two days ago and did a short hunt at my aunts yard. I hunted it before and got some Indians. It was cold but if the ground is diggable I'm going. Only got two clad dimes and two trucks. I did get an old fired musket ball and a very old small buckle. Went today to one of my favorite pounded sites in off and on freezing rain. Only hunted a little over an hour. I did manage a 1936 Buff and a 1941 Jefferson nickel, a few clad, and some misc items. I try every year to hunt every month of the year, and here in MI that can be tough. So far I have two hunts in Jan and two in Feb. Come on spring!!!!

Isn't that the name of the buffalo on the nickel ? Nice variety of digs, Steve in so la

Hey Mike, Glad you were able to get out. It's always a thrill to find the old nickels and toy trucks. The weather is just too cold, for me. An hour in cold weather brings on 'Ole Arthur' and then it's meds to combat it ... so I don't go out, when it's cold.

Congratulations. I just hope I can get out 5 times this year I only got two go a few times last year.

Nice finds, Mike, brave soul--Gotta take care of that cabin & gold fever now & then--I remember hunting on Jan 1st one year & it was in the 70's with PPL wearing T-Shirts & shorts -- don't remember if I did good or not but was good just to get out & about! Ma
