[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 26675265, member: 10461"]Close, maybe, but no cigar. Still… get back out there, and who knows? I remember an article in [I]Western & Eastern Treasures[/I] magazine in the ‘90s about a fella up North like you who was detecting along the base of an old stone wall. He got a signal and popped a large cent. Then another, and then another, and then a huge signal which proved to be a buried large cent [I]hoard[/I]. I forget the number. 400 of them? Something crazy like that. Anyway, that hoard contained a Chain cent and a super-rare “Ugly Head” Washington copper. The stuff is out there. Before he died suddenly and too young, my dig buddy Tim Buck from New Hampshire went out with a bang. This is one springtime’s worth of silver he posted for his last season in the field. Look really closely at what’s in there… [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/oldattachments/slvr2012.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/oldattachments/slvr2012b.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
