Awesome kind of day to get out, hope everyone did. I hit a soccer field in the area where bleachers stood back in the '50's. Found 9 wheats and a silver quarter.
Hunted two 150-yo farmsteads and got another quarter.
Too much dirt moved around at both places.
I also found a ceramic marble, it was stuck in the thimble! Good digging all, ffd
