New site producing! My oldest coin to date!!

Since the fields are being harvested I have really been focusing on sites I have researched and been waiting to hunt all summer. Most have been less than exciting only coming away with a few relics and very few coins, nothing to exciting.

One site I have been really excited to work is a site that dissappeared by 1840's, it was started around 1805 and thats pretty old here in Ohio. First few hunts only produces a few buttons. The other day though I think I found part of the main site and today found another site on same property and guessing it is related to the town. The other day I found the Large cent, cant get a date off of it yet (dont know if I will) but it dates 1796-1807 and I found about 12 buttons and misc. Today I went back and headed to the other end of the field, there was a lot of junk and trash but once I got out of the trash the tones were few and far between, found a lead muskett ball and about 10 steps away I managed the 1795 Spanish silver! worked the site a little more then headed back to the other part of the field that has produced so much, managed a few more buttons! This site has been a nice change and excited about finding my first Spanish coin!
