seems like I can't find more than 30 minutes lately to get out, but again, it was worthwhile to me. Found a screwdriver handle, lock, wheat penny with "195" date, nothing behind the 5. A 1996 quarter and an indian head penny that I can't get a date off of. Also the object in the top left seems like it could be a coin, any ideas? Not much to work with ???

Is that a Partial hole
or Lump ?
where a Loop may have been attached ?

Could be a Very Old Button.
by size maybe a 'Dandy' button

Re: Short hunt again

guys, as far as I can tell, that mark is deceiving and I don't know why it showed up. This thing is flat across and smooth on both sides ??? :dontknow:

Re: Short hunt again

Oh, and I was able to get a date off the indian head, 1879. Actually a very nice coin, was just under 100yrs of grime and muck! I"ll try to get good pics tonight and update this post.

Re: Short hunt again

Thanks Dave :icon_thumright:
Just four months ago I was thinking about getting a detector, now i'm digging the exact type of coins I coveted. My next goal is to break into a silver streak like you and Jeff have going :icon_pirat:
