Pretty good hunt Saturday.....

[Mike from MI "Iron Brigade"]

We are still not allowed to gather with our friends up here. I decided I needed to get out to help with this cabin fever. I left before 8 am, and it was only 29 degrees. I went to a mid 1800's farm house that has been hit pretty hard by a friend of mine over the years. I managed a few keepers including a 1914 wheat cent, a neat shut off valve to something, a suspender clip, and several misc. items. I then went to a corn field site that has been hit by my same friend, but never myself. It was a farm in the mid 1800's also, but just a field now. My first keeper was a pretty nice 1893 Indian head penny. Later I got a nickel tone, and right on the surface was an 1883 Shield nickel. I stayed in that area, and my next target, maybe 20 feet away was a really nice 1866 two cent piece. I really like that deep green patina. My last target is pretty neat also. It is a badge of sorts from the Kalamazoo free street fair. Dated Oct. 4, 5, 6, 7 1898. I need to straighten it but it's a pretty neat find in my book. We now are having some cooler weather (40's daytime, 20's at night) But you can be sure I will continue social distancing by taking my detector for a walk. Stay safe everyone.

I keep looking at the two center. For real that is a the nicest one I have ever seen dug. I like that badge also. Really cool finds.

Mike, that's some really nice finds, especially that 2 cent piece, that looks like mint condition.

Congrats, Mike, nice finds indeed! It is cooler here in SE MO, too! Weather needs to heat up & kill the Virus, so PPL can be back to work & outside enjoying it! But remember, This is the day the lord has made so let us rejoice & be glad in it! Thank You, God in Jesus' name, by faith we know in Your timing & concerning the fulfillment of Your Holy Plans all things are done! Amen! Ma

Hey, Black Hat, that was indeed a nice hunt and saves on the coins and other relics. Stay safe out there and Continued Success.

Yes indeed nice to see you out. Hunting with our your buoy is not as much fun. We can only pray this will end! Nice scoffs Miky.
