6000 Mile Search for a LC was Successful

Great story Mike and glad you made it back home safe and sound.
It's funny, I said to my wife I wanted you to find your first large cent in PA, and wallah, two! If I had been there, you may not have walked the same area that you did. You used your own senses to bird dog out a LC, congratulations. Correct me if I'm remembering wrong Mike, but I think you had that place on your radar...I just suggested what area in the place, but thanks for the credit I didn't really earn.
Great talking to you as you visited our state. You are a fine gentleman and I wished I had met and hunted with you, oh well maybe next time.
Again, Great Story!

Especially to a new comer to the hobby as myself. I've only had my detector for about a month now and really havent taken it out for a major hunt as i've been busy with work and ofcourse researching. reading this post has gotten me motivated to want to get out and "Git ur Done".
Thanks for posting Mason.
Thanks for posting Mason.
That is a great story with an even better ending. I'm so glad you accomplished your goal. I have to say that this " I don't know if there were any more targets there or not. I quit. My goal had been to find a LC and I had two, so I figured I'd leave some in case another person came along with the same goal as I'd had.", is the best part. That's what it's all about. Good on you, you deserve a big pat on the back. Congrats, Joe

After soaking in olive oil for a couple of weeks, the Draped Bust LC I thought was a 1797 is actually a 1799. It's severely corroded and holed, but had it been in better condition my Red Book says it would have been worth around $1250. Of course, my whole trip was based on finding a LC so I'll never turn loose of it.
