    Best hunt yet 5/13/11

    I just started in April so to some of you guys this in nothing but this is my best day yet! I had off of work today so I went out hunting and started my day at the fair grounds. Left real quick because under the grass was all gravel and impossible to dig. But I didn't leave without finding something. My first signal there I dug up a 2007 George Washington $1 coin. Since the fair grounds was a bust I decided to go to my honey hole, which has been good to me. I left with 19 Wheaties (the oldest being a 1937), 2 Rosies (46',59'), 1 1945 merc, a 1943s war nickel, and a 1990 English pound.

    Hey great hunt! Silvers any day make a great hunt and $1 coins are cool no matter how old they are... just think, you would have to dig 100 pennies to get that any other day

    Great finds Ryan! I heard Brett pulled over 20 wheats there yesterday and your Dad got a couple of silver as well today. Honey hole is right!!! I was out there last night for my daughters graduation party but didn't have my detector with me and wouldn't have been able to detect anyway. Drove by the park around 7pm and drooled though....
    Maybe tomorrow I can squeeze in some time there. Try and save me a couple!!!
