Lunch break hunt ~ 1903 Indian Head, 1954 silver dime, & 1944 wheat cent

[oddcoins]

Hello!!

I took an extended lunch break today to go detecting with my friend Wayne and we hit up Skinner Butte Park in Eugene Oregon. I dug up a 1903 Indian Head Cent, 1954-D silver Rosie Dime, 1944 Wheat Cent, 2 clad dimes, 2 Memorial cents, and 4 pull tabs. I had to head back to work but Wayne stayed at it; I haven't how well he did after I left, but he did dig a 1931 Buffalo nickel before I had to go back to work.

Anytime you find silver and an Indian on a short hunt you've had a good day!

Neil,

Cool to hear you are getting out and finding things.

I have to ask, do you wear latex gloves while detecting? I am just wondering because it looks like it and I can't see anyone can wear those detecting and not tear them to pieces.

Thanks man!

I use the black gloves from Harbor Freight ~ they aren't latex . . . . Nitrile, I think?
