We had a pretty good day today. I first started out hunting at a park just looking for quarters. As soon as I got out of the car I looked down and saw a bracelet in the parking lot. It’s not silver, but still pretty cool eye find. I started to hunt the park using a quarter program. I ended up with $3.50 in clad quarters.
Once Jimmy D arrived I made some calls and got permission to hunt a 1890’s house which was located directly across the street. I first dug some pennies and a nickel (1940, 41, and 64). Then I got a strong signal about 5 to 6 inches down. Out came my very first Walking Liberty 1935. What a great feeling and my oldest silver yet. There’s no S or D on the coin, but I’ll take it. Next I found what was a part to a real gun. Once I cleaned it up I realized that it was an old cast iron toy gun. You can see PAT PEN but no number. It is also very heavy. I searched around but could not find any other parts of the gun. Jimmy D also found a very nice old silver ring, and some other cool stuff. It was a great day and we can’t wait to get back out there. Thanks for looking.
