I tried out a new spot yesterday in an old forest site and in the first 5 mins I dug a 1923 wheat @ 1" deep...Im thinkin wow this is going to be a good site! Then I dug a 1910 right next to it! I started to pinpoint on top of the ground and it was buzzing like mad! Im like ok those all can not be old coins ....So I start swining my at pro and its sounding like a casino with high tones and numbers!
I sat and pinpointed - 73 pennys from 1900 to 1956 in a 4 foot area - 2 IH's! AND A 1909 VDB!!!! ...I was boggled as to why there were so many old pennys in one spot- deep in the woods?!...Then I noticed the broken half burried treasure box! They sure are nice pennys... not typical for these parts- so im guessing the chest preserved them for some time or these were not in the ground for 50+ years and possibly stashed or dumped by modern day pirates..
