Frost in the ground about 9 inches down and wet ground above but could not watch everyone else posting there finds so I had to get out. Started out with a couple clad quarters and then the soft sweet sound of deep silver. First silver of the year 99 barber dime and then a few minutes later and only about 3 feet away found my oldest injun to date 65 a little worn but it still put a smile on my face. Now I just have to wait for the recent snow storm to leave, and the weather to warm up (high in the low 40s and lows in the 20s this next week).
