Four cop cars showed up, we were doing two of the old churches and someone called the cops, said they seen a man with a knife! Vino pulled out a knife he had just dug and showed the cop. I was in the other church nearby and was digging with my Leche, I told my cop maybe they thought it was this! Haaaaaa lol. Here is the knife Vino dug.


He had another banner day of finds at that same church, he is working with the church historian solely there, here are the two coins, 1853-Half Cent and 1864-Two cent





He also found some skeleton keys, brooch, and another Two Cent coin, 1867
Hopefully he can update these pix with the coins all cleaned up(although the Half cent looks like someone came down the street from the mint and dropped it)





I found 14 quarters which gave me a trill quite a few times when they were deep, I thought they were going to be LC's. I also found 5 wheats, two PTC tokens, clad, toy car, and a Continental lighter, it looks like a zippo(first)




Thanks for looking, HH
Brad

Vino is on a roll lately. That half cent is gorgeous and I've always wondered why those 2 cent pieces always look so good coming out of the ground. I have an 1865 with great detail and most seem to look great. Great job fellas

I think old Racer is doing what he does best. He is old and if he is not hunting he is resting. Just like me! But he hunts the game and we hunt the treasures.

I got permission for another yard hunt tonight, think silver girl. Maybe Racer will sniff out some silver for us!
