Default Another Oldie from the Farm

I got out with Paco and Keith yesterday to the same farm field as before.

Well, it wasn't long before a got a nice reading: a "Dollar" on my meter. I looked over at the two detectorists and said, "I'm getting a dollar hit! I'm getting a dollar hit!" I dug down and was soon greeted with an 1854 Braided Hair large cent.

I was talking to Barb at the end of the road, and she told me to look over at Paco and Keith! When I did, I broke out in hysterical fashion, stating, "They each had two double latte espressos before this trip, Barb!" I couldn't calm my laughter when they continued the hokey pokey, one after another.

This site now yielded 11 coppers!

That would excite the hell out of me. I love those braded hair large cents.

Yup, I have been drooling over what you and Paco have dug up..... Or maybe it's just my age. Nonetheless Keep on posting.
