Every now and again, life gets to us. For me, the holidays are notorious for depleting my batteries.
So, what did I do? I went for a walk around the mansion. I can always count on finding something and
there's a pretty good chance of it being old. But, even if I don't, just looking up at the surroundings there does more
for me then the finding.
Anyway, here's what I dug up:
I believe it says "HOUBIGANT FRANCE"
Strange chunk of lead. I almost think I see a pattern in the side.
Did get an old coin. I believe it says 1910. Doesn't look real good except
that it's been buried for over a 100 years! Also, I'm pretty proud of this
particular find. For, you see, I deliberately hunted with the ATP wide open,
and with iron audio on and no discrimination. None but my own ear.
This penny was found at just over 8 inches down in a VERY trashy/iron area. I
wanted to see if I could pick out a coin sound from all the iron. The machine was
sounding like a machine gun! But, sure enough, I heard the perfect lil penny sound in and among
all the cr*p. It got tough finding the actual coin as the pinpointer doesn't discriminate either!
And....I even got a passport back in the house.
So! Now, I feel better! Tired, but that's ok. I think I'm all recharged.
Thanks for peeking!
