Headed out at 11 AM thinking I'd hunt with Tony at his house. He said I can hunt his property anytime he is home when we chatted last Sunday. His truck was not in the driveway :BangHead: so I went to another old house I have been eyeing. Got there, and no one answered the door. :BangHead: So I drove to a permission I hunted last July. The house was built in 1870. Last time I hunted I was pulling clad out at 8 inches in the front yard. This time I concentrated on the back yard and along the driveway. I dug the wheat at 6" deep beside the old sidewalk going to the garage and on the South side of the house I found the bracelet laying on the ground by a tree. It looks silver but I can't find a mark. I used the grass cut pattern as the boundary line to the North. The neighbor to the North was outside as I hunted on the North side of the driveway. I got a nice signal and dug. At 5" deep I pulled (what I believe to be) an1851 Braided Hair LC. :headbang: When I got home and looked up the property lines OOOOOPs I dug this from the neighbor's yard (house built in 1955). See the pic below. The red marked spot is where I dug the LC.

On the way home I went to the "Brick House" to hunt without any discrimination (I have pounded this property). I pulled a penny from under a low hanging Holly tree and a 22 long round about 7" deep in the front yard. After about 30 minutes I decided to quit for the day and go home.

Nice to get out, nicer still to get something old.

About the neighbor? Don't fret it, if he asks, just tell him you went a lil Loco. ;)
 

Loco my friend, get them knuckles ready to knock on the neighbor's door - won't hurt a thing at all.

Roger that Deepseeker, I copy that loud and clear.
 

Hey that bracelet is a cool find, hope it turns out to be silver for you Loco! :thumbsup:

Congrats on the '51 LC too,

Nice find Loco. I wouldn't worry, it just looks like you had a little "sway" to your grid. It happens.
 

Looking at the first picture I saw the numbers and I first thought it was the target for an air drop. :) Ah what's a few feet between neighbours nice going on the LC and the bracelet, but it's time to go knocking like the other have mentioned since you know the place produces oldies already. :thumbsup:
 

What they don't know isn't going to hurt them! Lol! Knock on the door, you've heard the word no before. Great finds!
 

Oh heck ya!!!!! Great score on the large cent!!!!!:occasion14: What are lines anyways!!!!!!:laughing7:
 

Great job on that LC. A mistake worth making. The bracelet looks great too.
