Day two of the vacation I went back and finished the permission from yesterday. The 1st target was the 1910 V nickel (only my 2nd one). :thumbsup: I was hoping this was a good sign for the day. The V was the only notable coin dug besides a 58D wheatie. It took 4 hours for me to re-grid the front and side yards in another direction and to do a single grid on the back lot. I was hoping the names on the good luck token meant something to Dennis (the property owner), but they didn't. The aluminum tag may be from a car part.

I then reconnoitered a couple other hunt sites where farm houses once stood and the sites are now in wooded areas. Since I was going by the local state park, I took the liberty to hunt a couple spots there. All in all it was another good vacation day, beautiful weather, a chance to slow time down, and enjoy the great out doors. :hello2: There are a few houses in town that I will be cold knocking tomorrow. Fingers crossed that I get the okay for another new permission hunt.

By the way, the V nickel only rang in on the right to left pass of the swing and was silent on the return sweep. :dontknow: Glad I decided to dig that iffy. :4leafclover: It's the oldest coin from the permission.

Great Digs Loco! I like the old GM Company key fob, and the names (although badly spelled) on the Good Luck Token are"Wilfredo" and Mary. You are welcome, LOL! Sub 8-)
