Lake keeps giving it up, jewelry, wheat's and 23 nickels

I was in the water for four hours, I think I have hypothermia, ha. I feel like a little kid that doesn't want to come out of the pool, the dates on the last ten targets were from 1947 to one other deep one that was a 1967, after that, 1955. That is what kept me in the water for another hour.
Five Wheats, 50, 39, 44, 55, and 53 I have never pulled even close to that many nickels ever! So many times I thought I had a War Nickel. That kept me digging too.
Enjoy the pix, HH & GL

Make sure you don't go in the water that long before your lunch date....especially if the water is cold:laughing7:
That's a lot of targets. I hope your luck and fun continues!

At least those nickels aren't orange from coming out of the ground.

Same lake, targets are finally starting to thin out. Now I'm starting to pick up deep targets, next time there I put my big coil on and hunt deep

are you sure you're not part beaver or otter? you sure spend a lot of time in the the water and it shows in your finds, I know that swinging in the water gets tiring and yet you persevere until you have something good to post. always enjoy them too. Looter

If you're hearing the nickels, you're listening close enough.

Good job!

Haaaaaa, I'm a big strong man looter, working in the water is a cake walk compared to what I used to do for a living. It is so much fun.I learn something new every day I do it. Thanks for your comments and everyone else
