Detector(s) used
MineLab Excal II & Bounty Hunter Land Star
The very next day after finding a Georgivs a couple of weeks ago, I wound up in the ER with pneumonia. It took all of about 48 hrs of doing nothing at home for me to start whinning I was bored stiff. So they let me outside briefly as long as I didn't go far :tongue4:. I made it as far as the front yard. The good news is I could still hear the detector over the wheezing as long as I used the headphones :icon_pale: Plus I hardly noticed the fever with the detector in my hands, they should really market these things as a cure all.
Property has been in my families hands for over 100 years, I can always find something to make me smile. I had my system worked out, swing, rest, walk, wheeze, rest, swing..I decided to dig a hit and to my surprise it was a planting marker tag my grandmother was infamous for, still has her hand writing on it. My grandmother that lived here was some what of a pen pal, except she exchanged seeds with people from around the world. These were Strawberries from England.
That was enough excitement to get me up and moving again, I soon had a coin hit. A 1905 V nickel, I chuckled once, coughed twice and peed my pants a touch, time to go back inside after that. Thanks for looking and happy hunting out there!
