40 Oldies Today

bazinga · Mar 9, 2009

I had two friends come detect today from out of town, so I took them to a park that rarely gives up the good stuff. After about 3 hours we had 2 silver and a couple wheats between the 3 of us, so after lunch I told them another spot or two before we head to a new park.

Well the new spot treated me quite nicely

I tried to stay and dig that elusive silver #10 on the day, but my batteries were dying on me and it was getting dark and the park is in an area I don't want to be after dark.

Finds:
7 Mercury Dimes
1 Roosevelt Dime
1943 War Bond Sterling Pin
29 Wheats
1 Indian Head
1 V Nickel

Nice finds, strange, I've hit a few spots in that town with only a 64 Kennedy Half to show, I'm going to have a talk with my Minelab and see coil to eye!!

I would say that you had an excellent day. That's a lot of silver.

Really like that old Boy Scout war pin. Hadn't seen that one before. If you're finding that much silver at the second place you went, you better get back there and hit it hard and real slow. You didn't get it all.

We all don't hunt virgin parks, though. Remember that.

The coins are pretty much gone from the spot. It wasn't very big, and I went slow the first time through, and then the 2nd time through as well. Maybe another wheat or two might surface by digging more junk signals, but that's not worth my time.

Off to the next spot.
