Went to a house tear down in town tonight with one of the girls from our MD club. She was having a pretty good night, scoring a token, Chinese coin, and some wheaties. I got a good signal with the Teknetics G2 and couldn't believe what I dug up. I showed her and she made me throw them back down on the ground to test with her Whites. She got a low foil signal out of them. I have high hopes, they feel pretty heavy. I plan on brushing my teeth and heading for the gold man tomorrow. The half cent was a bonus. My second one this year, though the other one was from a large cent. This is an 1878 Indian.
