Hi all,
Gary, my hunting partner and I got out this past week, we hunted till I thought we were gonna fall over from exhaustion. I think we had a pretty good week. For awhile I thought Gary was gonna snow me again, but my new Fisher F75 came through with flying colors.

Gary found 12 wheat's, one sort of gold ring, a watch fob,not sure what it is, 3 Mercury dimes, 1916, 1927 S and a 1943. He also found a 1898 Barber Quarter and a 1925 Standing Liberty Quarter, a part of a fork, part of a gold necklace, a American Tourister Luggage key and a 1888 Indian Head penny. Now that's an Awesome week.

I found 2 IH's 1888 and 1896 and a really not so sweet looking Silver Three cent piece. It is really worn and the date is 185?, no mint mark. But it sure was a nice find, worn or not. I also found some arrow heads, a stone game ball, a pit stone, used for cracking nuts and a Mule shoe.

Hope you all had a Great Memorial week, I know Gary and I did.

HH, Ringfinder

WOW, what a hunt!

Thanks Buzzard, I can't wait for the rain to stop so I can go hunting some more, arrowheads should show
up pretty good after the rain stops.

Barber, Standing, AND a 3-Cent piece? Amazing! Just one of those, or the arrowheads would have caused me to do the dance! Simply amazing!

Thanks Carl, it was a good week of hunting. I'm always looking at the ground, hoping to pick up a button or
maybe an arrowhead. Gary was digging a hole and got a IH and also an arrowhead he was kneeling on. He has more luck, lol.

Thanks Bob, I am getting a little better with my Fisher F-75, just takes some getting used to. But Gary sure makes it hard to hunt with when he keeps using that ACE 250. I always have mine handy, LOL

Thanks Mud, it is a good addition to my collection also. I couldn't believe it when I pulled that small coin out
of the ground. I wasn't sure what it was. Thanks Again for your reply.

Sterling finds! Sure makes my 6 memorial pennies 1 clad quarter and one clad dime. look puny!

HHHH

Keep at it Harry, my partner uses a ACE 250 also and does very, very well with it, I also have one and my first year
I dug over 4000 clad coins with it and plenty of silver and a 6 pound cannonball. The ACE is an Awesome detector!
I'm just using a Fisher F-75 so I can hunt in Va. in the bad soil they have down there.

Gary and I actually found all this stuff in a weeks time. We didn't find it all in one day. But we also found a ton of junk targets I forgot to show. You gotta dig the junk to find the good stuff.

HH to all, Thanks Again for all your replies, Ringfinder
