I posted a while back that a friend of mine let me into the basement area of his old house. It turned out to be nothing more than a crawlspace and gave up nothing but nails etc. I got to hit the yard yesterday and was getting plenty of trimmings from the aluminum siding when I finally got a penny up out of the ground. It was a newer one but I started to get excited. 3 more pennies and then I got a 53 Rosie. Yeehaw. Another newer penny and then a 22 bullet.
Mixed up in this all was as abundance of pull tabs and the little flutter sound you get with it. I started passing up hits at the end of my time in the yard cause I only had a few minutes left when I dug a penny on one of those "curious about that sound" tones. I decided to go back one hit to the last funy tone I had and I dug up a 1851 " Dix centimes". A french dime? Looks really cool and since I'm fairly new to this, it's my oldest so far. I had to leave, but I'll be back. (no pun intended).

p.s. I'll get my daughter to help me update with some pics.
