3 IHC's, 8 Wheats and a "Smade in China" Ring
Went to a hunted out spot today, but there are a couple of tough to detect spots that I figured might yield some decent finds. My choice was a steep bank. Started with a 1894 Indian. Nice start. Ended with the ring. Junk, but oh well. Pulled 1900 and 1906 Indians also, along with 8 wheats including a '18, '19, '19s. One totally toasted. 68 coins total. Was hoping for a silver dime, but it was a good day anyway, and I only hit about a 3rd of it. Bank has little grass, is trashy as can be and I'm going to have several times over it digging the trash and iffy signals. In many spots the targets were laying right on top the ground including two of the wheats. Erosion doing my job for me. Picked up several pouches worth of trash today.
These last few pics are from a short hunt last week. The peace medallion and chain are not marked but appear silver. The Indian came out of the ground and my first thought was it was awful thin. Had a heck of a time even figuring out what it was when it came out of the ground. Kept looking for a wreath and shield and it was confusing. Got home and cleaned it up and seen that somebody had shaved the back, carved a B and some edge design into it. Pic sucks but maybe you can make it out.
