Decided to take a few hours for myself this afternoon and do some digging.

Was driving around and came across an older looking school with a decent sized yard. It looks like the kind of school that everybody would rush to as soon as they purchased their detector. It's in the middle of Indianapolis and these schools just keep giving up the good stuff! I will go back again because I went through it quickly and only dug the obvious coin signals. Next trip there will be for iffy signals and maybe some gold.

Here are the finds:

1908 Barber Quarter (1st one ever)
1904 & 1906 Barber Dimes
1943 Mercury Dime
Sterling Silver Charm with enamel inlay
6 Indian Heads (1880, 1880, 1898, 1901, 1903, 1908)
17 Wheats that will be tossed into the wheat penny jar

Also dug about $3 in clad I think.

I think I will just keep on hitting Indianapolis schools since they are so productive. Before I moved here you couldn't find anything at any park or school in the area. I'm still shocked at what I've been finding lately in such obvious places. I guess people just haven't hit these spots as hard as Muncie was hit.
