Persistence at the demo site.

[diggernash]

Was back at the demo site today. Stuck with the small coil on my Golden and found a V nickle and some other items. I was pretty excited when the V flipped outta the ground. Lot of time in this site for two mercs and the V, but I'll take them. I started to do a happy dance when the large silver token flipped out. It landed at a funny angle and my first thought was, "SILVER DOLLAR"... still an interesting find, a Stardust gaming token from Las Vegas. I don't guess I can cash that one in now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmZJc68zyAA

The usual other cast of characters were found, I didn't bother posting the zincolns or the can slaw. The large cat's eye button is interesting, still haven't determined what material it is made of.

Hope y'all had a great day diggin.

Looks like a great site! Like the V looks to be in purty good shape, who knows maybe there is a little gold there also
so keep it low and keep it slow. Good Luck and H.H.

The V is a 1911, The track-hoe crunched some gravel on it and knocked the patina off. I didn't hit this one... We never hit any old coins with our diggers, do we??? My improvised lighting system for the photo didn't work real well. (led flashlight leaning on a stack of wash rags. There's probably a redneck joke hid in there some where.
