Five Ladies and Seven Indians went to Church and didn't go home, Now there Home!

Hi all,
Gary and I decided today that we would try out the old church site we found a couple of weeks ago.

Gary let me use his new 9x12 coil on his ACE 250 and he used my ACE 250. Well we both did pretty good,
except that doggone Gary whipped me with my own machine. LOL

Gary found 3 Ladies a 1860 Seated Quarter, a 1930 SL Quarter and a we think 1888 Seated dime. He also found 4 IH's of which when we got back home he could only find one of them, hehe guess we will pick them up on our next visit to the site. They shouldn't be too hard to dig for! The one IH he still has is a 1906 and also two Wheat penny's 1910 & 1915 D. He also found a broken silver ring with a red stone in it.

I found a 1875 Seated dime, a 1893 V Nickel, 6 IH's 1874, 1880, 1887, 1890, 1898 & 1901.

I also found one wheat penny 1910 and a broken gold signature ring. I also found a axe head.

We really had a great day, until it started raining, of course like fishing when there biting you hate to quit, so we didn't. But we did finally stop when I realized my Garhart coat was soaking wet.

Congratulations on some super sweet finds. I haven't been out in a while 'cause I figured the ground was frozen, but If I remember correctly, your'e an OH digger. I'm going to try and get out, if the weather holds up. In the past, I always tended to have good luck on New Years Day, weather permitting.

Thanks for the reply, and yes I'm from Ohio and I wish that I would have hunted Sunday as the soil is really easy to dig in. Get out there and I want to see some of your finds from down south ( Dayton is south LOL ).

I also found a axe head.

So... someone went to church to "bury the hatchet"? ::) :-\ :-[

Nice finds! I hear church yards can be very rewarding.

I'm hoping to get permission to search the "old church" (built 1849) next to my parents "new church" (built 1957). Looking forward to it!

More excellent finds. ;D ;D I'm drooling over that seated quarter. :D Also, any IH in the 70's is a good date. Enjoy!

Re: Five Ladies and Seven Indians went to Church and didn't go home, Now there Home!

Thanks Bob, Nate and everyone else. Yes we are ready to hit it again, hopefully Friday. You know with the warm weather, we have all those honey do jobs to do. Darn I wish they wouldn't get in the way of our favorite hobby. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Gotta keep the other half happy. Of course you guys that are single, all you have to do is skip work or school. LOL

Yes we do have TWO great sites, it's hard to tell which one we are going to, until we get there. I can't wait till next year and the farmer works the church site up even more. I am getting a really nice IH penny ready to give back to him for allowing us to hunt this great site.
