No great surprise the wheatie was from a permission around an old house.

Lots of junk in the yard and my Garrett AT Pro was clucking between coin targets. Might go back and dig some deeper hits in October. Kinda hot in Texas right now.

First wheatie, nice! I found mine across the street from where I lived when I bought my first machine in 1984. I didn't put it in a flip. I still have it, but don't know which one it is. Same with my first silver dime, quarter, etc.
Congratulations and they come easier now that the monkey is off your back.
