Holiday Greetings with finds

[Mirage]

Hope everyone had a good Christmas. Haven’t been on the forum much but Nate has been keeping me informed of the highlights on TNET.

Now that I have a little time off I thought I would post my late November/early December finds. Nate and I have not done much detecting lately. We have had some snow and cold weather but I think I just needed a break from detecting. Also took a trip to New Orleans. I’m almost ready to get back at it. We went out for an hour yesterday just to enjoy the sunshine and dig a few coins at a local school.

The dog in the window is our SAVAGE chocolate lab.

A few unique things among the finds- old lock, token, some cool marbles and a 1939 Canadian Silver Dime.

Happy New Year

Bob

WoW mirage You sure found allot of old coins at that school. When I hunt schools in CA, I rarely find a coin over fifty years old.

Good finds, Bob, and good to see another post! Those Chocolates are pretty dogs; I had one for a spell about ten years ago. And remember, Bumbles bounce!

Nice finds Bob! Unfortunately I am forced to take a break as it is frozen solid here. Your dog looks possessed with the green eyes, what do you feed it, LOL? J/K HH, Mike

Holy cow Bob, where you been? Hanging out with Bigfoot and Elvis?
Glad to see your smiling face again. Very nice finds. You always have the best looking wheats! Hopefully Duffy will ID those marbles.
Your dog with the laser eyes looks scary.
Happy new year,

Gypsy and RR - I really didn't have much time to "see the sights of the Big Easy". It was a work trip and going there was a pain(ice storms fouled up flights). I was trying to think of who was down in the area. RR- Have you ever detected in New Orleans RR? There is a good chance I might get back down there. But it will be a while... We did stay in the French Quarter which is cool. Lots of history there.

Civilman - Thanks for the compliment - I posted my "tips" in the photography section on this site. There are a lot of other good setups and tips there.

Doug - I escaped bigfoot's captivity but cannot tell you where Elvis lives. I still know how to use a detector so don't make me come to your city.

Beautiful pics as always Bob. Don't know why but I like the token the best. I have found so many different tokens over the years it's always cool learning about the history of each one...what it was for...who issued it, etc.

Spencer and I are looking forward to hunting the Berg with you and Nate tomorrow. Should be a good day for it...last chance in 2007 to up that silver count and dig a few hundred wheaties I gotta say here that the friendship you have shown me and the great times we have had in all those hunts is something I will never forget.

Great pics and fantastic hunt. Those whtys are fine looking! Congrats!
