Hi folks!
I am new to this forum and wanted to show some pics and finds from yesterday's hunt
Started the day off around Noon hunting across the street from an old baseball field at the fort.
Here I am already to go!
A few hours later, and a few wheat pennies dug, I finally managed to come across this nice '40 merc at 3" deep
About a half hour later, I got a 78 reading thinking it was another wheat or clad penny at 5". Started digging the target, but ran into a tree root a few inches down. Not discouraged, I started digging around the root and under but still no target even though it still pinpointed underneath the root.
Was just about to give up digging thinking it was a hot rock or trash when out pops this
My first ever seated dime after 4 years of detecting the fort The pic was taken at the house instead of the site 'cause my camera started acting up and got a little frustrated 
I tell ya folks, this dime took me by surprise to say the least it caused me to do the popular AU break dance all my friends know so well
Reverse
As I was leaving the woods, I dug my last silver coin of the day. A '56 rosie
Took my finds home and here they are before and after cleaning
Can't forget about the wheat's
That's it folks!
Thanks for looking and HH......James
