Another great day at old house....GOLD!

[1235CE]

Hello all.... Went back to the abandoned house that I got permission to search on Thursday.....spent 3 hours there today in the back yard.....here's what I got....

5 wheats (1910,12,15,19,21... all real cruddy near the well)
3 Indians (1902,04,05....1902 is GORGEOUS!)
1916 Buffalo
4 Mercs (1918-D,40,41,44)
1945-D war nickel
2 Roosies (1948,49)
Barber dime 1909 (beat badly)
1875-CC Seated dime
1892 Barber quarter (got his "S" brother on Thursday)
and a super cool gold box complete with rosery still inside....heavy box, 18K, rosery is also 18K)

Man, I was sure I had my first gold coin when that thing showed up in my hand....local antique guy says it dates to about 1910... Can't quite figure out the initials on it.....
This house still should be holding alot of other stuff as I haven't even made it to the side yard (about an acre) yet.....I'll keep you all posted..

oh yeah, our daughter Cameryn graduted from pre-school today....pic of her and my wife as well....


HH all!

WORK SLOW, DIG LOTS, GO BACK 50 TIMES AFTER YOU HAVE DECIDED IT IS HUNTED OUT. WORK SLOW THEN TOO, DIG THOSE IFFY SIGNALS YOU MIGHT PASS OFF AS JUNK OR IRON. GOOD JOB

Very nice finds. I like the gold the most.

That place saw alot of traffic in it's days.

If your house was that big you had money and kids to lose it for you.

Great hunt for you! Let us all know what other great finds come from that yard. I have recently started detecting Victorian homes in my city but their yards are, well, city yards and quite small. That is a monster yard. Good luck!
