Woods hunt

[Joe-Dirt]

Went out with Tnet member JoeBro to a really old park with a colonial past today. I’ve found great coins and relics at this park but it’s huge, rocky, wet and hard to hunt. Thursday, I zig zagged the woods by myself and did ok, today we found one coin between the two of us. I had my 15” coil on (bad idea) so I thought I would do ok. All I found was a pair of flat buttons, a pair of musket balls, an aluminum 4 hole, parasol slide and 75% of an old gold signet ring.

Thursday’s hunt with my 11” coil got me a partial shoe buckle, smashed tombac button, Bancroft trust banking token from the 1920’s, 2 - 1925 buffalo nickels, 2-1934 wheaties, a junker ring, a hat pin and some overall buttons.

And as a added bonus picture: last weekend I found a sterling watch bezel, I didn’t post it because I’m laaaazy������

Woods hunts are also my favorite and it is treating you very well! The sterling watch piece is very sweet!

I've been lazy at posting too! I found a seated dime yesterday so I feel like I have to post hahaha

Nice hunt indeed. I love hunting the woods in the spring and fall. No bugs, brush and lots of light. I got a sterling watch bezel last year in the woods. How deep was yours? Mine was on the surface after I kicked the leaves back. Thought for sure it was going to be a can lid..

I really like hunting in the woods. Looks like some nice finds. I like those Buffalo Nickels.

Some nice finds. Looks like you are keeping the coil to the soil as I have seen here on Tnet. Always enjoy seeing your finds and pics. Congrats!
