Hi Folks,
These find's are from two different hunts. The silver thimble and crotal bell are from an old house site and are a first for me. The half dime and V nickel are from the old fairground site I have been working for the last 7 or 8 yrs. The half dime is paper thin but it's a seated so I will take it. The V nickel is pretty toasted but it came from a farm field so this is not our of the normal.
Thanks for Looking

Started with a Garrett. I think I've probably tried everything make and model from 1977, all the way to the up to the E-trac and GPX 4800.
Nothing new as for me now, I am pretty much handicapped.

Thanks. Yes there still coins to be found here ,but you have to work at a snails pace to find them. I wish they would plow it. The ground has been no till since I have been working it.
