my best lunch break hunt....gold, silver, IH's

one of my best hunts ever, and in less than an hour! got permission to hunt a yard in the city near the post office ;D drizzled rain the whole time but hardly noticed. I dug the merc first and my stomach dropped as I turned over quickly to look for the D. The IH's were not good signals, all of them iffy, but they were spaced out good enough and sounded small and round all about 4-5 inches. 2 of them were together in a hole. They all cleaned up great. the gold ring was a surprise, kinda small but I'll take it. thanks for looking all, Griff

Very nice coinage.That 16 merc looks just like the one I dug last week. Funny how they wear on the outside edges like that so if there was a D.......... we'll never know. That one IH is in pristine condition. Very nice hunt. Bet there's more to be had ::)
