Got out yesterday for 2 hunts(whoohoo). First hunt was at the old school where I found my first Buffalo nickel! Also found 3 Wheat cents and another clad nickel! I love hunting this site but it is very trashy! Then it was onto a private house where I found 1 Wheat cent and .67 cents in clad. I found 2 quarters there and is exciting pulling the larger coins out of the dirt. I also found what I think is a shot gun pellet! Hope you enjoy pic. I have permission to hunt both sites.

WTG on the buffalo. Sounds like you're in the right site pulling up older coins, I hope you get a silver next time out.

Love the Buffalo's :icon_thumright:

Wish the govt. would put the true Americans back on the coins and take the liars faces off. The old coin designs just looked so much better than they do today.
