Hunted 4 small yards today. Scored!!

[Digger RJ]

Got finished with a couple jobs at noon so I headed to a distant town for a few hours. Found a bunch of Wheats, then I got to the last house with a little yard. Got 5 Wheats, several copper Pennie’s, a 1924 Merc and some junk jewelry. I got a token or coin that I can’t make out at about 9” today. Looks old. I’ll try a few things and see if I can get anything legible out. Silver#7fty!!
Ok so I found 17 Wheats yesterday. Think that’s the most I’ve found in one hunt
1925,1952,1944,1954D,1944S,1947,1926,
1941D,1947D,1941D,1944,1952D,1949D,
1941D,1931D,1927,1954D.
Thanks for looking and Happy Hunting!!!

I think everyone here wants to see a close up pic of the 1943D wheatie.
Fingers crossed for you! My guess is you have the date wrong, but I hope I'm wrong and you have a banner find PLUS!

Good hunting RJ!

Congrats on all the finds. Nice haul. Thats the way to put some extra time to good use.

Some squirrel is going to be pi**ed at you for taking all their acorns (in that first image.)

 

[ModernMiner]

Nice! That a whole wheat field you dug.
Congrats on that early Merc.
What detector were you using?

I may have got the date wrong. Currently out of state. I’ll double check as soon as I get back.

My apologies and I’ll definitely double check before I post. The Wheat I thought was a 1943D was actually a 1947D. It was crusted and I just glanced and went on. I actually didn’t even think about it being anything either.
