Metal Detecting
Off today so I headed out somewhat early,went back to the site I was working on yesterday,quite muddy after all the rain,but it beats dried concrete anyday :thumbsup:
Anyhow I managed a LC today 1831..officially my oldest coin to date :hello2:
Also scored an older IH that came in as a 1863..
Two other IH's surfaced also,an 1889 and a 1897
One buffalo dated 1918 no mint mark
And two Wheat's

Scored some nice relics also,the item pictured far right middle I believe was a site from a gun?

Have fun out there folks...

Congrats Soupie on your oldest coin ever. Nice looking relics.
 

Congratulations on your oldest coin! That was a great hunt, fantastic finds :icon_thumright:
 

Nice digs, congrats!
 

Sweet digs bud. Kermit got his twig today :laughing7:
 

That's more then a "Fine" hunt. More like a Fantastic hunt.
Nice oldies....
 

those are great soupie, with all those places to detect they should keep you buisy for awhile.
 

Congrats on that LC Scott and the other oldies :thumbsup:

There sure have been a lot of LC's found by the IL group this year :)
 

Awesome LC Soup! You sure have some mint hunting ground down there! I'll have to bring you some more brew sometime and hit those old fields with you if you don't mind. Maybe once I get my new tent poles I will rent another car and roadtrip it.

How deep was that LC?
 

Yeah buddy!

Nice looking cameo brooch too!

Jason you know your are welcome anytime,the crops will be planted soon,so will probably have to shoot for a fall hunt...unless you hurry down in the next few weeks....The LC was about 6-7" down and rang in loud and clear as a high tone...the ace would have found it easy.... ;D

I will await the vid.....you did tape it yes? :laughing7:
 

A fine hunt, indeed. :icon_thumleft:
 

I heard it was to stich the coins to the inside of clothes so it wouldn't be lost... obviously it didn't work so well since soupie finds so many coins with holes.
 

AWESOME hunting bud, BIGTIME CONGRATS!!! :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
