The little Injun teamed up great today with my F75DST. The first site that I hit was a large corner lot at a busy intersection. I sure thought that I'd load up with silver coins there, but all I was finding was cans slaw, pull tabs, some modern coins and one lonely wheat penny. It was time to move to a better location.
At the next site, a mid-fifties home, my very first audio signal that got turned out to be a 1941 Mercury dime. Man, I thought that I hit pay dirt and was going to load up with silver coins. I worked that site hard with both detectors and all that I managed to unearth that was silver was a small sterling ring. It was time to move to another site.
I decided to work some grassy areas between the curbs and sidewalks in a older part of town. It was one of those areas that kept you looking around all the time. I wasn't having too much fun, but I did find a 1904 V Nickel, before heading to a safer part of town.
I saw a nice stretch of grassy area between the curb and sidewalk that looked promising. I dug a few clad coins before getting an interesting VDI number and audio tone. The ID that I was getting was too high for a silver dime and too low for a clad quarter. I figured it could be either a silver ring or a Standing Liberty Quarter at best or a copper pipe fitting.
Lucky me it turned out to be a Standing Liberty Quarter, my second one for the year. It's time to head for the house and rest up for another hunt.
On my way home I went by the first place that I detected and saw that there was a car accident involving 2 cars. One of the cars ended up on the lot were I was detecting earlier. Timing is everything.
