......before the LA trip! ![Wink :wink: :wink:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/wink.gif)
Just had to get one more hunt in before leaving for the dining/hunting adventure at Noodle's place in Louisiana Friday. Terri and I had agreed to meet at a ballpark that we had not hunted as of yet. I drive up and she's sitting in her car. I see this disappointed look on her face. Roll the window down and ask what's wrong. She points up the road, I look, and see that there is a gate and it's locked.
I said, "OK, what's plan B?"
She says, "I don't have one!" :P Then we start rolling ideas around and decided to get permission to hunt a tear down that we've been meaning to get to. Find the owner, get permission and get to hunting. If you've ever hunted a place that has just been torn down, then you know what a mess everything is. So I start looking for those areas that haven't been disturbed by the dozer. After about 30 minutes, I settle on a spot. Found a tax token, a few pieces of change, a key, a Chinese cash coin, miner's tag and a button with a 'P". Decided to move over a bit and found NINE more tax tokens! :P
Finding ten tax tokens in one day is a record for me!
I scoot down a little and find a merc. Good deal, I thought. Move on up and find a wheat and a rosie.
At the end of our hunts we always empty our pockets and share what we've found for the day. I went to take some site pics (which have gone into space somewhere, I can't find them on my computer)
When I get back, Terri says, "Hey, your merc is 1916 and your rosie is a 46." "Well, neat," I say, and we get into our cars and head for home. Now the second she said 1916, I'm thinking, "I know I've read on Tnet many times about the 1916 being a special coin, if it has a certain mint mark." I'm twenty minutes away from home and the closer I get, the faster I get!
I'm about to die to know if I've found an extra special keeper!
I finally get home and Charlie meets me as I drive up and get out. I'm so excited and head straight for the magnifying glass and coin book!
Here's what I found....
