That's a great hunt! Love those locks. Finding relics turn me on and its even better toped of with some shine. Cool find

What I liked about it is the owner said 15 or 20 people has already hunted it and all you'll probably find is railroad spikes, because they use to burn old railroad ties in the yard. The yard was trashy but did ok.

Trashy sites have paid off for me in the past, they are just a lot more work. Plan to go to one tomorrow. It's an old site so even junk targets are interesting to dig.

Well played. 2 silvers and a lock with the key. Hope it works, or that you can get it working. I think I'd keep the hoe thing on the down low bro.

Just opened the lock after a few shots of wd40. Started to leave the old hoe outside, didn't want to upset the wife.

Hello RJ55. Those are some nice digs, I'd be happy with that. Good call on the hoe head outside bit...I've got a relic garden outside full of ax heads, stove parts and the like. HH C9
