Hunted a small yard and it was cherry picked for sure, no wheats, silver, or any real clad even, but they left the nickel signals....nabbed 2 buffalo nickels. While I was hunting the curb strip a guy pulled up and told me he lived a few houses down and I could hunt his yard if i wanted. Sure!!!

I went down there and first target was a couple wheats, then buffalo #3....more wheats, then finally a silver 1911-S barber dime, more wheats then buffalo #4......I have NEVER got 4 buffalos in one hunt, let alone in a 2 hour hunt. This yard was TINY and obviously virgin. Got a merc and the cool cowboy ring too....any info on it would be appreciated.
The buffalo's are 1921, 23, 25 and last one is undated. I ran out of time and he said I could stop another day to finish up!

I used to listen to Hopalong Cassidy, The Long Ranger, Gunsmoke, and many others in the '50s. Brings
back memories.....
 
nice hunt! love that ring.
 
My father in law has a Hop Along Casidy watch that got when he was a kid. Very cool.
 
man those are some great finds. love the Hoppy ring
 
Great finds bud!!!
 
Nice finds. The only buffalo nickle I have found was one that was soldered to a roach clip. I guess some hippy paraphernalia.

Happy Hunting

I would be very happy with that day :icon_sunny: M.R.
 
You must look real approachable or people round there are real friendly or both…
People will call the cops on me if i'm detecting those strips on the sidewalks some places. Especially the rich old places.
Either way thats a real nice days worth.
