Hello Everyone,

It sure felt good to get out and go detecting yesterday. No pressure to push to get more wheats/silver to increase my counts before the year end. I decided to head out to one of our old Barrio parks. Jon(goldenapples) met me around mid-day. The ground was super-saturated, and the signals were popping up everywhere, in the same areas my buddies and I have pounded to death countless times last year. I think we did a very good job at finding all the silver there; there wasn't one to be found yesterday. I did manage some good finds. My first semi-key penny was an '08 S Indian Head. Better than a merc or rosie anyday. I probably will never forget finding this since it is the 100-year anniversary of this coin. I also found two more semi-keys, a '10S and an '11S. I ended the day with over 30 wheats. Glad you could make it out there yesterday, Jon. Let's do it again tomorrow.

The 3 silvers were from my 1st hunt of the year last week.

Get out and find something Good!!

Dan yesterday was alot of fun, wish I got there early to see you dig the 08s but the semi keys were cool aswell ;D The barrio has given up some great coins and with my oldest to date there yesterday I love it, I'll post that here later.

See ya tomorrow for sure.

Kirk with your new car you can come to cali and hunt the barrio with me and Dan on one tank of gas :D :D

And if you eat from one of the barrio tamale wagons, you won't need to gas up to get home.


HaHa I think you know the area well :D :D

Congrat's Dan...You just did MY wheatie's for the year in one day.Congrat's on the Semi's and Silver too.Unbelievable!!!!
 
Oh man! You're sure getting a great start for the new year! WOOHOO!!! I love digging up silver, but seeing key date & semi-key date wheats and such is awesome too! I dug a 1909-S Wheat cent at a public park last year. SO FUN!

Keep digging them treasures!
