Headed over to the street tear up in my town again after I got off work.
When a place is producing, always return.
Was there about 5 minutes when I got a deep IH signal and a higher tone signal to.
I knew there would be an IH and wheatie in the hole.
I had to dig through a bunch of roots and the first coin out was an 1898 IH then out came a 1910 wheat
checked the hole again and got an IH signal Bam !! another IH (1901) and then 3 more wheats 1910 1911 and a 1919.
They were about 6-7 inches deep and it took me 5 minutes to dig them out but it was worth it.
Right after that I was talking to an older lady who lives in the house. She asked if I had found anything and I told her what I have been finding. She said that there were a few other people doing that about a week ago. I told that they must have cleaned out all the trash for me and left the good stuff behind...She laughed about that. We chit chatted for a while about her brother who looks for gold in the mountains and then I went on my way.
Saturday while my friend and I were there a neighbor of Kimsdad stopped by and asked if I was Bob. He said he knew Neil (Kimsdad ) and that he hunted the area already. That must be who she was talking about.
Ended the hunt about an hour later with a little TREASURE CHEST with a 1947 Rosie next to it.....
Also found a complete toy gun
Thanks for looking...... " I'll be back "
