Hello All,
Vp here, the Bone Dry Crew got out today to a 1890's park/picnic area - which is kinda out of character for us, we had a nice colonial location setup for today but the ground in the farm fields is still frozen solid, so we went back in the woods and hunted this park. It has produced some nice coins in the past I've been told, so we all figured what the heck let's give it a try.
Now after about 3 hours of hunting, I was off by myself when I got an iffy signal deep. I dug and dug and came up with the Barber Quarter first and then the pocket knife.
I finally found the guys about a half mile away in the farm fields bordering the old park. I walked up to them cursing and saying "d&mn, i can't believe there's no silver in this place !!! did you guys find anything
" "no they replied" - "you find anything" they asked, "nah, not really" i said - "well i did find this old pocket knife" handing it to them, they examined it and said "yeah that's cool"... in the same low tone of voice i pulled out the barber quarter and said "oh yeah ... i found this Barber Quarter in the same hole ..." Their eyes lit up and said what the %%%@@@@!!!!!! we all did the bone dry dance yelling and high fiving !
it was too funny !
The quarter/knife combination was found almost 10 inches deep in some very muddy soil with my SE and the stock 10" coil.
I'll post additional pictures after I clean it with some water/soap.
Take care,
vp
