Got out for about 2 hours yesterday, to an old hillside that's produced some goodies before.
It's been pretty well overgrown for most of the summer though, and it's VERY tough hunting.
It's on I'd say about a 40 degree slope, and it's got a very low undergrowth of mostly very tough blueberry bushes, which destroyed a coil wire of mine last year.
So fighting through there is like Heart-attack city!
Anyway, here's the coins I dug.
3 Injuns, 1884, 1882, and a 1906.
And a 1911 V-nickle. Nothing is in really great shape.
No silver. :( :-[
One of the Injuns and the V- nickle sounded like absolute garbage. Exactly like pulltabs. I almost didn't dig them cause I figured it was a pulltab or another shell-casing.
Everything was in the 5-7 inch range.
Thanks for lookin'.
TBK.

Looks like the hard work paid off that is the kind of places a person needs to hunt---the hard to hunt places.Great job on the coins.

Here's a couple more I found last night in the same area.
Another 1911 V-nickle, and a silver Rosie.
I know it's not "technically" the "same" hunt as my original post, but I figured it wasn't worth starting a new thread over. So I appoligize for adding to my own thread.
Anyway, I've been having kind of a hard time lately with deep nickles with my new/used CZ-5, and haven't found any V-nickles since I bought it in April, now I've found 2 V's in the past 3 days.
Weird.
Also I thought it was kinda strange finding a 1911 V-nickle on 9-11.
I thought that was weird the second I looked at the date.
