Sat. in the city - Sept. 12

[Michiganne]

Hi all:

I haven't hunted a lot of city houses so I was happy to be invited to hunt this one here in town. Sat. morning I was joined by my 7YO son and we hit the sod for a few hours. We ended up with a ton of pennies, two which were Canadians and two wheats. My son read the dates for me and said the wheats were a '46 and a '40 but a peroxide bath at home showed the '40 to be a '10. I'll have to settle for an old wheatie since no silver showed up. We ran out of time to grid the whole back yard so I'll be back. Not long before we left we found the F-18 jet which made my son's day. I was glad he was rewarded for sticking with me for 3 hours! Excellent weather once again.

HH and thanks for looking,
Michiganne

Good hunt Anne looks like you two had a great time and I'm sure your son was happy with the toy jet. Congrats on the wheat it's in good shape too.

Great finds Anne
Must have been a nice surprise to clean the '40 into a '10. Sweet

Glad you could get out there M, and some good finds. Don't forget to hunt the curb strip in front if possible, I've dug silver in those spots. HH, ffd
