Default Out again on the Farm: Addenum

I was able to get out again for a few hours today. I was getting nothing but terra/farm flotsam for the first few hours, then I decided to go around the foundation of the older section of my house.
6 pennies(one wheatie, 1940) others were in the 70,s
1 1961 nickle
1 pocket watch.(what a suprise when I am searching for coins) front is gone, no arms, and its soaking now. hopefully the back casing is silver and perhaps a maker name.

I can't tell you how hyped up I am about finding older and larger denomination coins. I know they are there.

Congrats on the finds! A wheatie makes for a good day! Look for signs of a old walkway, or even a cloths line. I have been lucky at both, Beale.
