Hey everyone,

I started detecting today knowing that I only needed to find 3 wheats for my brother and I to pass a combined total of 500 on the year.

Did a little more than that! Found 11 wheats in maybe an hour and a half. Also found a 46 Jefferson. So close to a war nickel!

Good luck out there all,

Nice!....
Green Indians are common, but look at those green wheats!
I’m jealous of your soil.

That is just amazing.Over 500 wheat pennies is quite a haul. Were any of them in the key date area? in hunting over 50 years I did find several keys and a few semi key Lincoln cents. Best was 1909 s and next was an 1914 d penny.

Thank you. Yes, lots of early teen S wheats. I think I got multiple 1910-1914 S mint wheats. My brother got a 24-D.

Congrats, to you and your brother , on the 500 wheats... my wheats near me are usually in such bad shape, you can only tell they are wheats, but, can't read most dates..
