Hey folks!

Got out for an unexpected outing today and it turned into a good one.

Work was fairly slow today so after a lunch meeting I got to use the afternoon to hit the dirt. I hit a spot I’ve had in mind for a while and had some great success!

Highlights include:
-1944 GW Quarter
-1919 Seattle Municipal Rail token
-Navy Button
-Tax Token
-10 Wheats
-3 Modern British Pennies

This is my first GW since a long time ago, April I think so I was very pleased with that.

Hope you had a good day and good luck out there this week!
-W

Lol. You know what? I think they officially changed it a while back. Wouldn’t that be ironic to find and Indian head penny on Indigenous People’s Day?

Thanks freak! In my last 4 outings I have found a combined 50 wheat pennies and only 2 silvers coins lol. I guess that’s just the way the cookie crumbles sometimes.

way cool my friend, old silver, tokens, foreign coins, button and wheaties! What's not to like? gotta love it when you have that kind of variety in a hunt plus the bonus silver.

Thank you DL. Agreed, no complaints here! After 2.5 hours of non-stop digging I was pooped. Not sure how some people hunt for 8 or 10 hours. Crazy haha.
