We were given permission to hunt an old farmsite. You wouldnt know there ever was a farm there as its all in a big soybean field. It didnt take long to find our first coin. What a coin too! It was the 1900 one cent. The good luck stayed with us as we ended up with the finds you see in the photo. The final total was: a 1915, 1944 and 1947 dime, a 1892,1900,1914,1944,1943,1962,1936and 1943 penny. There is also an unknown copper looking coin/token.
The wild part of it too was that twice the coins were sitting on top of the soil! This land has been farmed intensively for many years. To think these monster machines have been driving over these tiny treasures for all this time is a real hoot.
My wife and I have only been detecting for about 3 months so we are really excited. This will fuel our searching for a while for sure.

Three months hunting and you come away with that group? With that kind of luck you'll be discovering a hoard next! :headbang:
 
Those would be nice finds for an experienced hunter......you did well, husband and wife team. Keep it up.
I will be looking to see what else you find in that field.......sounds like a great place to hunt. :thumbsup:
 
That is a great day no matter how many years you've hunted!!
 
Thank you all for your encouragement and support!! We went out there again today and found 4 more coins. Two dimes and two pennies. Both dimes were on top of the soil! The dimes were from 1940 and 1960. The pennies were from 1919 and 1921. We also found a fork, part of a pistol an old toy, belt buckle and other stuff. lots of fun again today. thanks again everybody.
