First October hunts

[Kevin in IN]

Got out Sunday & Monday and was sure nice to see the sun again. More piers had come out so lots of new space open. Most of the coins are really ate up in this area. I did notice the further I got from the oak trees the better shape the coins came out. Is it acid from the acorns. Just a guess. Found a really cool whistle. Does anyone know how old it might be? Some wheats, some silver, a very badly worn shield nickle. The locket is marked 925 inside. Got a Louisville railway co. fare token. Play dough dime and torch button. Large ring is 10k, 1967 class ring. Band is 14k and small ring is silver. Time to put the excal.up for a few days and go catch some salmon on the manistee. Thanks for looking. Kevin

Congrats on all the silver and gold finds, one day maybe I'll get a silver half. The only one I've found someone pounded into a crude ring and everytime this year that I thought maybe I had one turned out to be a large cent. Good luck on the salmon run, land a big one for me since I won't be there to try my luck.

You'll get one Wing. Your hunting the right places. Kevin

Again, some nice finds Kevin.

That whistle is the coolest one I have ever seen.

My guess is you're correct about the acid in the ground, although I have nothing to confirm that, but I have heard that even in soil where there are Pine trees that tends to happen as well.

Love the Walker and I am proud to say that I pulled my first ever on Wednesday and am posting it soon after I press the Post button below.
