Way to go on the silver, Jeff :thumbsup: This is the weather I LOVE :headbang: Not one for the Summer myself. I like to go out in a t-shirt and feel the cold air. No bugs, sweating, overgrowth & all that other crap. Bring on Fall & Winter land hunting baby :headbang: :hello2: :headbang: :hello2:

Place is odd Buddy

Has every type of ground I Ever hunted

Swamp Mud, Dry gravel, Ball field sand,
awsome Ground, Hard Clay, coal dirt,
rockey Ground

& No rhyme or reason to what your going to hit
on the next dig.

& as ya see not alot of Coins.

saw a few holes, but may have been animals
or Golf Divits.

love the fuzed pair of pennys

Yea was Pretty Cool !

Got a dime signal dug about 4" Maybe 5

& Saw round Thick Object Thought Bummer.
Then saw it was 2 Pennies
& Wheats Showing on Both sides.

Couldn't pop them with my Finger nail.
Actually Broke my Thumb nail Trying.

Tapped the edge with a Hammer to Pop them apart.

THANKS ALL !
