Hunted out site still giving up some keepers

crazyjarhead · May 30, 2009

Hello All. Just got back off of the road after a 6200 mile trip from Ohio to Vegas, San Diego, Denver, Oakland, Portland and Seattle then to Louisiana to Michigan. Had to get in a little hunt today even though I have so much to do around the house and everything else.

Went back to the pounded site that still keeps giving every hunt. However, the finds are running low >:(

The house was built in the early 1900's and is long gone but the mature maple trees which once linned the driveway. This was one good indicator something was there. Today I found a small pocket spill with a 1925 buffalo and a 1926 Wheatie. Missed this one on many other hunts :dontknow:

Found a 1940 Wheatie and a 1945 Wheatie. Also found a clad 62 nickle. That was it for today. The farmer had recently cut the grass and this made it much easier to hunt.

I am going out with a friend on Sunday to a new virgin spot :hello2:

Hopefully I'll have some better finds Sunday. Thanks for looking and keep the passion high :laughing9:

Nice hunt CJH. I bet you were ready for some off road time. I couldn't drive all those miles.
I'd probably wreck looking for places to hunt.

Marc(NB) · May 30, 2009

nice coins!! good luck on that other site :thumbsup:

Good hunt always nice to find the old coinage especially what you missed. Be looking forward to your next post. Sometimes stuff around the house over-powers what might be a good hunt. That's my case anyway.

Congrats on the oldies! Nicely done! :thumbsup:

It's Lousyana, Rick

Dang, CJH PMs me from Hammond, just about 9 miles from me...well maybe next time we will be able to get together.

Glad to see you made it home, that was one long haul. I agree with Rick with your finds, very nice indeed. :icon_thumright:

LSU has a super football team and the people are nice to me. The guy I delivered to at Laplace on Memorial day gave me 260.00 tip for deliverying his stuff first, because I was supposed to go to Livingston Observatory first. He included 60 bucks for some dinner. We were hoping for some good Louisiana cookin' but everything was closed. We had to settle for Shoney's in Lapalce $:-\$

Hey, that's my line! :laughing9:

Ron, whenever you can find some goodies in a previously worked spot, it's a good feeling. And I see that you did. I hope your spot you're at today produces for you. Best of luck!! :thumbsup:
