Howdy all:

My hunting plans were in flux this weekend as a few plans fell through. I decided today to hunt a 1900 house I started last fall. My previous hunt here of two yards produced nothing of note. First, I hunted a nearby older house/barn site and found lots of large rust relics. I opted to head back to the 1900 house and hit the unhunted side yard. I got a good signal under a bird feeder and was thrilled to unearth my first Barber dime! (1911) :thumbsup: Two steps later I got another good signal and out pops my first Barber quarter! (1916) Now I'm really pumped!! :headbang: Further gridding produced a '23 Merc in the same area. The owners plan to do some landscaping this spring so you can bet I'll be back soon for more gridwork. :icon_pirat:

HH and thanks for looking,
Michiganne

You go sister! You have what it takes , hit that place before and during the landscaping. They will probably dig up something out of range of your detector, so stay on it. Good luck.
