Hi everyone
Kingcoiler and I went swing the coils tonight at an old farm house he got us permission to hunt.
Kingcolier started off hot with a merc. A little while later he comes up to me with a big grin on his face and his hands cupped. When he opened his hands there was a really cool old pistol in his hands. I would say it's from close to 1890's I think.
I was not starting out as strong but, slow and steady always works well for me. lol
I had managed to find a nice little rosie when Kingcoiler yells out "another merc"
His Minelab Se was working it tonight.
In the mean time I had found an old music box workings nothing from the outside. I slowly worked closer to the front yard where Kingcoiler was working and, soon I had a junk penny and then a couple of wheat pennies. Now, Kingcoiler walks over with a smile on his face and a nice little broach.
He was kicking my butt but, I was not worried. I tweaked the Etrac and was off to the races. Now, I got a few more wheat pennies when again, Kingcoiler yells out "another merc" making this 3 plus jewelry.
After a little while Kingcoiler comes to show me a old ring ( not gold ) and I tell him oh you will know when gold comes out of the ground it is as shiny as the day it was dropped. Yep you got it. Not 5 minutes and he says ok this is gold!! And, sure enough over he walks with a cute little 10kt ring.
I am still pluggin away lol with my lone rosie and wheat pennies. Now, it's my turn to find another silver dime, a 2nd rosie. Then a little while later a 3rd rosie and, a few more wheat pennies. Then I get the little heart. Then the big heart, and then the little piece of bracelet.
Now, it's getting late and kingcoiler walks over and says he is ready to head out but lets compair goodies. We lay them out and we both have 3 silver dimes and some junk jewelry. But, kingcoiler has the gun,a silver spoon, and a nice little good luck bell, and the 10kt ring so he wins. I have 3 silver dimes, more wheat pennies, and junk jewelry too but, no gold lol or no gun lol.
Kingcoiler walks over to the barn to thank the owner again for letting us hunt while I continue to hunt the front yard a little while longer.
Then I get a nice high tone ( ya know the silver tone ) and it's deep it ready 8 inches and reads 12/46. Now, if this is what I think then I am going to get a silver quarter I tell myself. I pinpoint it carefully and and cut a nice plug about 6". I pop open the plug and check and yep still in the hole. I check with my garret pinpointer and nothing so I take out a little more dirt and check again and it rings out loud and clear.
Carefully I check the position of the target and pry out a little more dirt and out pops a 1894s barber quarter.
. I shut off the etrac and head over to the barn to show the owner and kingcoiler. 8) Not wanting to be rude I wait for the right moment to join the conversation and also say thank you for letting me search.
When the owner asks how I did I tell him 3 silver dimes and some junk jewelry and, then hand him the barber and smile. Kingcoiler looks happy for me and, asks where I got it and, of course I had to tell him right where he was before.
Kingcoiler sure had the Se working tonight and the Etrac made sure that I did get one more piece of silver.
So, all in all this small lawn gave up 6 silver dimes, 1 silver quarter, junk jewelery,wheat pennies,silver spoon, a pistol, and last but not least a cute little 10kt ring. Kingcoiler and I both had a nice night. Come to find out the owner told us that 2 guys had worked the yard before and, not found much.
Minelab strikes again!!
Here is a pic of my finds.
Thank you for looking
