    Civil War token and a few summer finds!

    The wife and I finally had a vacation last week and got out a couple times to relax a little! Kinda hard to find a spot to hunt when the ground is so dry, but we did manage a spot or two. The places we found were either vacant lots or an old home where no one lives. So we got lucky I guess. Last...

    After 5 years I finally found one!!

    Today, the wife and I went to a farm field where an old farm house used to be. Mid to late 1800"s I believe. We were there around 2 hours with not much to show. Then as we were about to give it up for the day, I got a good sounding 30-32! Dug down around 3 or 4 inches and out popped an 1892 IH...
