My latest wanderings

This northern field gave up quite a few coins in the past. And I guess that it still has a few more to give.



 
I was in the Boreal forest on the long weekend.

The Titanium Emberlit stove comes apart and packs into a bag, flat as a pancake. You just use available local fuel supplies like sticks, it is very efficient. Consider it on an extended detecting trip.

I haven't even found one this year. They are a tough find! Congrats:thumbup:

Honestly John I kind of worry until I find one each season. I have been extremely lucky in that I actually have found them every year since I started. Believe me luck has been a huge factor some years, and I believe that one year I only found one. Maybe it is silly, but it is some type of drive in me to find at least one each season, almost a self imposed tradition. This year was no different than some in that these were fluke or luck finds. There is only one field down south here that I have base line confidence that there are likely still some fish around. I know of a guy in Alberta that says he's found a few hundred of them. Well I'm not that good. I feel darn lucky and grateful to see one of these wee nippers in hand at any given time.

Thanks. I met a fellow with his son fishing on the river bank. It was pleasant to meet and chat with this kind gentleman, considering that we were on the outskirts of such a rough town.

Thanks. I am using my old Canon 570 IS. I am disappointed that the vids are so grainy and lousy. But what can you do. The wife wont let me use her newer \ better camera for bush whacking and water mucking. :biggrin: It is kind of fun to learn about this video stuff so maybe I'll research and get a more use oriented taping device. Technology changes so friggin fast that I seem to be 10 years behind, at any given time, lol !

Great job, nice silver!!
Thanks for sharing

To be honest, I was a tiny bit disappointed about how worn the coin was. But it's legible, and I'll take a 110 year old silver any day of the week. Particularly up here. I don't think that people realize how rare and hard it is to find old silvers, such as John Edmonton's Barber dime, in the historically low population north\west of Canada.
 
Nice on the fishy.
That boreal area looks like black fly country.
