Last time I went out I got permission to hit the yard across the street from the one I was hitting , told them I would be back this week sometime . I had just started and a guy walked up to me (Kevin) and said I could do his yard asked him which house was his and he pointed to one that I have had my eye on. The yard I was doing had a big dog that was barking and was afraid that he might wake the owners wife so figured I would hit the new one now and wait until later to come back to this one, plus this new place looked good:laughing7:. I was there about a hour and found 3 wheat pennies and some clad and junk, it wasn't long before the owner with the dog came home so I made plans with Kevin to come back, from what little time I was there I think it could be a good one. Went back and worked the first yard , I found a old hoe or axes head a little clad I was wishing I had stayed at Kevin yard after a couple of hours with nothing real good. then I found a old buckle maybe part to a harness. It was a warm day and had about enough and was working my way back to my truck when I got a good signal , turned out to be a 1963 rosie wasn't old sliver but still sliver so I called it a day. Here's some pics. The wheat dates are 1916, 1942, 1954 and I also found a scout badge. Thanks for looking and good hunting...

That scout badge is totally awesome and in really good shape, don't think I have ever seen anything like it before if indeed a scout badge. The 1916 wheat is a very nice find and you found more silver than I have of late, nice digs all around. :icon_thumright:

Thanks for looking and I have been having problems finding the sliver lately so it was nice seeing some sliver for a change, as far as the scout badge it could be military , I am going to have to look into it.
