I very rarely hunt yards so when my buddy called me today and said he had one we could hit I wasn't very excited about it. But, it's been a good while since I have been out so I decided to give it a try. Long story short, between three of us we pulled over 100 coins out of a small yard in about four hours. We found everything from modern coins to a shield nickel. I found 39 coins ranging from an 1875 shield nickel to a 2012 dime! My good finds for the day were a 1943 s quarter, 52 dime, 1919 and 1916d wheat pennies, an1899 Indian head and a shield nickle that I think is an 1875.
My one buddy also found 39 coins with several wheats, one Indian head and a V nickel. The third guy found over twenty coins, mostly wheats and he found his first Indian head. I even found a Tootsie Toy truck to haul my finds home in. So, it turned out to be a pretty good day for all of us.

Wow, for a small yard you guys certainly cleaned it up with a bang.That place must have seen a lot of boy activity with all that loot lost.
