I've been digging in the Bangor area lately with my detecting pal (and local celebrity) goldbill. He's renewed my interest in one of the local parks and it's been paying off! Yesterday started with a 1871 Canadian dime. IMG_20190506_114455175_HDR.jpg IMG_20190506_114522810_HDR.jpg

Next was a toasted large cent that's soaking in olive oil. Then, I got a deep penny signal and out popped a drilled 1856 half dime! IMG_20190506_122155174_HDR.jpg IMG_20190506_122211628_HDR.jpg It was so tiny that I thought it was a button at first. The day before produced a 1905 half dollar (my first large silver of the year). She's a little beat up, but she's beautiful to me! IMG_20190503_114536285.jpg IMG_20190503_170230247.jpg IMG_20190503_170250923.jpg

It just goes to show, no place is ever completely hunted out. Thanks for looking and HH!

Hey, Tommy. Yes he does. I've driven by his house many times but haven't managed to catch a glimpse of him. I did win a couple of tickets to the "IT" premier a couple of years ago and he got up and gave us a "welcome to my scary movie" speech. Pretty cool. :)
