Finds from VA....

My Dad got us on a place built in 1820, so naturally I had to make an "Emergency" run to VA. He pulled up a large cent that turned out to be an 1836 after cleaning. It's in better shape than it looks even though someone started to drill it.[attachment 14311 LC1836Obv.jpg]

The reverse looks a lot better[attachment 14312 LC1836Rev.jpg]

My first good find was a Confederate Block "A" coat button.[attachment 14313 CleanedBlockA.jpg]


Then I followed up with an 1865 Indian. I love that green patina![attachment 14314 IH65.jpg]

Here are a couple more Indians.[attachment 14315 IHs.jpg]

And finally a little modern silver.[attachment 14316 SilverDimes.jpg]

There is still a ton of ground to cover, but there are two HUGE trees down in the yard. There has got to be some good ones under all that! Hey Dad....save a few for me!
 
I'm drooling but it's freezing to my chin! :lol:

Even the gulls looked depressed today, 'cause this is the last open water left in the state, and they know it! And my take for the day was a few tabs and a zinc, but it did give me a chance to get out and enjoy the 38deg heatwave, good thing I was able to keep cool in the refreshing water.:jump:

<strong>Now I don't want you to get alarmed,</strong> but those are the Ossipee Mountains in the background............ not Ossipee, NC but Ossipee, NH.

I feel your pain :) I used to live in Cleveland, Ohio.

Ive been living here in Virginia now for about 12 years or more and being just a little more to the south sure helps. We have a few days where we cant dig because of snow or hard ground but for the most part I can still go in to the woods and not have to deal with frozen ground.

Sorry to rub it in but I cant resist :) I got a little hot when hiking around the woods this past weekend and spent some of the time detecting in a T-Shirt.
 
Very nice finds.Sounds like you have a place to detect for a while.That is one very well worn merc.Good luck:))
