Well 2019 is wrapped up for me.

It's been a really good season and I am grateful to be healthy and have had the time to be out there enjoying this hobby.

The day started off with an indian about a half hr into the hunt. Picked up a few wheats over the next hr. It was a slow day but I continued. After about 3 hrs into the hunt I get a solid 20 on the nox.

Cut a plug and there it was I knew exactly what it was. I hunt a lot and its only the 2nd one I've dug in 26 yrs. Was a pretty nice moment today to see another one.

I ended up picking up a smooth 17 merc war nickle and two indians to round out the day.

Looking forward to starting again later this week and see what 2020 will bring.

Thanks for looking.

Jer

Thank you for the comments fellas.

A2 it's actually my 2nd lol the other one I have is extremely ornate. I told one of my boys the same thing imagine having a sterling pencil in school.

Yes, PGH I am always out somewhere in the city hunting. We'll have to try and meet up sometime.

I didn't get out today could have just needed a little rest after going pretty hard in December.

Hope to be back soon with the first finds for 2020.

Good luck to all.
