Hi all, after work I did some door knocking which I hate but it goes with the hobby.
I knocked on one old property and no one was home. A neighbor came out and said their still at work . I asked her if I could hunt her place and she said sure have at it.
She said the house was built in 1921 and has not been hunted to her knowledge. That's what an MDer loves to hear!
Well this yard was full of modern pennies.. I am new to the equinox so pretty much dug everything. To my surprise a post Civil War eagle button came out of the ground at about 4 inches. A couple more holes and a nice 1891 indian turned up.
The only other decent coin was a 1938 wheaty.
Going to try again in a few days. I think the equinox is going to be a keeper but not sure if it will replace my etrac just yet.
