This morning I was hitting the permission for the 3rd time, but this time I was beeping and digging with my modded Cibola with the Sharpshooter search coil attached because I didn't want to leave anything behind. Keep in mind most of those targets could have been gold rings. I found 3 more wheat pennies to bring the grand total for that small front yard to 55 wheat pennies. Look at all those nickels! See the first trash shot.
As I was near finishing up the neighbor next door can out go for a jog and I said hello. He stopped to ask what I was doing and I told him that I was looking for older coins. After a little chit chat, he said that I could dig in his yard if I wanted to. I told him that I was pretty worn out and wouldn't be able to finish his yard today and would have to come back. He said for me to come back anytime. I said OK. Well, I'm going to rest for a day or two before going back. I'm really sore!
I decided to pull out the Nox with the large 11-inch search coil and do some cherry-picking to see what the new permission had to offer. The front yard is huge compared to the one that I just finished detecting. I have high hopes!
Right off, next to the sidewalk, I locked on to a good target and unearthed a silver slide. See pictures, I'm not sure what to call it. I didn't spend much time detecting, but I did manage to find the silver slide, 2 Mercury dimes, a Rosie, 10 wheat pennies and a bunch of clad coins. I can't wait to go back when I'm full of piss and vinegar and not so tired, so I can detect the permission properly.
