A good day in my book...quick 2 he hunt seeing silver

[NEPADIGGER7]

Helllo once again everyone. Well after hunting and coming up with a big goose egg yesterday I decided to sneak out this afternoon for a 2 hour hunt. My buddy found a 7 barber coin spill and he thinks the place I went today is beat. But needless to say Everytime I go I get silver or IH pennies. So I put of my stock coil for the pro and within 10 min I was diggin a 41 merc. It's probably the best condition merc I've ever dug as well Nd has very crisp edges. About a half hour later a 1917 wheat and 4 inches away 1897 IH penny. Check your holes after recovery people!!!! You never know. I added 2 more wheats to the tally about an hour later. Now I'm back working again hoping nobody saw me digging ! I also found a tag with a lion and BG on a crest on it. I posted in the what is it section I don't think it's a dog tag or anything. Idk Thanks for reading check out the pics below.

The metal tag is actually a Gimble Brothers charge card from back in the day. It was like a charge card for they're store like today's credit cards. Didn't know this unit I posted it in the What is It section and within minutes Tneters figured it out! Awesome piece I'm pumped!
