A Presidential weekend so far

[beez0404]

Had a chance to get out yesterday for a couple hours and was lucky enough to find the 1958 Washington quarter. Today I visited a local city owned facility that was a HS back in the late 50s through the 90s. It has been pounded by everyone over the years so there isn't much left. There is an area that is not as heavily hunted because it's grass growing over gravel. It's packed hard and tight and a royal pain to dig into. This is where I found the 1964 Roosevelt dime. In the same hole was a 1965 Rosy as well. Although the Washington quarter looked stained and horrible when dug it cleaned up nicely. The Roosevelt dime shows the wear of years traveling through the gravel. I had to call it quits today as it just got too darn hot. Had I taken any more clothing off I would have been arrested for REALLY indecent exposure. It was 62 degrees in the shade on my porch when I got home. Note the blue hue in the photos. That's the Carolina blue sky reflecting on the coins.

I hope everyone who can get out did get out and found some treasures this weekend.

I'm sooooo sorry George! I just matter of factly type and talk about the weather. I keep forgetting all you poor *******s up north with the unbelievably historically rich spots to hunt that are buried under 2 feet of snow which is sitting on rock hard, frozen ground. I do apologize and promise to try to be more empathetic in the future.

You wouldn't be teaching an archeologist a thing or two about metal detecting on your first hunt would you?

Two silver coins in your last 2 outings is GREAT. I am waiting for my 1st silver coin of 2015......been busy last 2 days, but will be in an older area tomorrow where I had found a 1913-D barber quarter in 2013.....so I hope to score. I have found 3 silver rings so far this year, but no silver coins.
Keep us posted on your future finds......that XP Deus is great on silver.....Good Luck.

great silver Beez, its amazing on how warm a temp can seem after being so cold, the same temp seems very cool when it drops from being around 100. but is pretty darn nice here too!

Beez, I'm sorry it cost you all that sweat to pull out that silver. It's supposed to be almost 60 here tomorrow so I will be right there, hope to find the silver...
But the really old, historical, ancient kind..
WTG! 2015's looking good!

HAHAHA- I still beat you on war nics, SIGH. thinkin' of making a portable snowman and putting the ACE 250 to work!!!. happy hunting in the balmy south.

Congratulations on the silver finds.

Congrats Jay! That 2015 silver total is steadily climbing. For y'all who don't know Jay is a reformed Yankee and after 35 years down here he still ain't used to the Tarheel State's heat even when it's just in the 60's. Don't worry Jay just another 35 years or so and you'll be a full fledged Southern redneck - you're almost there!
