Hey everyone, Got out today for about 3 hrs. Didn't get out yesterday because I was to beat up from working nights all last week and taking care of my boys in the day. So I got up early today energized and ready for a hunt. Was out the door at 6:45 a.m and that's rare for me anymore.
Wanted to check this old high school I used to go to. Hunted it for about 1 hr and got 2 deep wheat's in the 8 or 9 inch range. Found a nice purple and white marble. About 1.50 in clad and some relics all in one small section.
Will go back soon. Wanted to test it. Lot of area to cover and I wanted to line a new spot up. Since the old grove I've been working is only a few blocks away I decided to go hit that for a few hrs.
Got 3 wheat's there a nice old skeleton key a clay marble and a 1903 v-nickle. I also found what appears to be a coin but it was so worn down I can't tell anything. It looks like a button. It is a hair smaller than a nickle and a hair thinner. Has no trace of a shank or co. on it and has a slight bend like a button has. But it just seems to be more like a coin to me. Foreign if anything. Hit a penny dime on the dfx.
Was on my way out of the grove and got a nice 86 hit at 4.5 inches. Dug down and out popped this really black barber quarter. I had to clean it because it was so bad. No S mint mark. That would have made my year but that made my day. It was the last coin found today and I was just about to leave and hit it at the entrance of the place like it was looked over.
All the other hunters were to eager to hunt just the middle of the lawn. They were somewhat lazy back then. I find alot of coins right up against tree's and bush lines. Real tough targets to pick up. It tells me someone was there before me. They just weren't as good as I am. Plus technology has come through since it's been hunted I'm sure.
Thanks for looking
