    Congratulations on the larggie!!! Well done 💪🍀🤘😎

      Thank you! I'll likely never find another one

      I've only found 2 but you never know what you might dig up next! Happy Hunting 🍀

    Seems like the sun is always really bright when you are out in the mornings! But when you kneel down to dig or show us you make a shadow on the hole. I guess you can still see what you are going for, but we can’t see a thing. At some point you will put the coin in the sun where we can see it, but it makes me want to move over where the sun is shining in the hole as well as the find when you bring it up. I actually tried to move my screen over while ago trying to get a better view. A little sun would sure help!

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  5 років тому

      I'll try to be more mindful of the shadows for viewing. Thanks

    Go back after the house is hauled off and search the spot where the house sat . You never know what is under those old houses ,either something the families lost who lived there or the house could have been built on top of something someone lost or hid in that spot before the house was built .

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  9 років тому

      JIMinBama1 Within 30 minutes after the house was tore down over a foot of dirt was put over the spot. I only had a few minutes to walk around and didn't find anything of value.

    I'm surprised that you had the large cent in the pouch with trash.

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  9 років тому

      Numisaccent I had it in my pocket all the time. Then laid it on the hood of my truck right before I dumped my pouch. I know it looked like I had it in my pouch.. Thanks for watching my video!

    Makes me feel a little more grateful about detecting my area. I get frustrated when I don’t find a large cent.

    Hey there Mower Dog, what is that hood or sun shade you have over the top of your E-Trac control box. It looks like Duct Tape. Do you have a video on how you made this or was it purchased from a Detector Supply? Thanks and GL & HH

    I had a couple large cents when I was a kid. They have disappeared over the years, so a large cent is on my bucket list.

    • @mowerdog

      I think it's just a coat button?

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  9 років тому

      jjgbmw323 I'll find my second LC in about 30 years. I'll just be 84 years old...

    • @jjgbmw323
      @jjgbmw323 9 років тому

      30 years not likely: I found one in tree roots down deep, it was on the edge in the roots.
      I found another one by a church in the driveway...they are everywhere...and the King George coopers have been found in the fields....

    • @mowerdog

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  9 років тому

      I didn't even know what it was!!! LOL. Too bad my hat camera decided to shut down on it's own. That coin was mixed in with a lot of rusty wire. The etrac was telling me to dig that higher tone out. Glad I did.

  • @stevengolfs
    @stevengolfs 9 років тому

    Congratulations on the large cent. It came out of the ground in nice shape. That property looks worthy of a few return visits before the bulldozers arrive. The E-Trac did a nice job of giving you a good signal when it was next to iron. Not many machines can give that kind of target separation. Thanks for another entertaining video!

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  9 років тому

      I dug quite a few goodies with nails and wire in the holes. The etrac is a beast. Thanks for watching!

    I would love to be able to unearth some history ,and perhaps find something head spinning, sad part of that would be i live in a area with very strick codes of conduct ,and so much red tape ,I would have to travel for miles before anyone would allow me on their land, some people are very sniffy about metal detectors, let's hope one day they can see it has its advantages.

      Maybe you want to join me? Bring some good gloves!! This house may be older than I think? They said there were slaves quarters in the back that was made of stone. They said that years ago it was taken down stone my stone and moved to Missouri Town where it stands today. So this outhouse may have stuff in it from the mid 1800's!! If someone swallowed a gold coin then it's in there!! LOL I'm going to go to Missouri town and take pictures of the structure. Awesome.......
