Detector(s) used
Minelab eTrac ~ DetectorPro Pocket Uniprobe
You might remember reading a post of mine last week when I dug a 1944 Walking Liberty Half during my lunch break. . . . . . . . today I went detecting after we ate our lunch for about a half hour. The first thing I dug was a 1912 Wheat cent, then a 1941 Wheat cent, then a 1899 Indian Head cent! The first three targets were old copper coins! After that I moved down the road a little to a different area ~ first target there was a 1944-S Mercury dime! I dug a few clad dimes and some memorial cents . . and then had to go back to work.

Thanks for looking!

Neil

Nice going on the coins :thumbsup:

You've discovered a sweet spot!! Forget about lunch..take the whole hour and hunt that place every day, then have a quick sandwich on the way back to work ;D

Gee, all I got at lunch was heartburn!! Should've went detecting instead of eating that healthy fast food. ;D :thumbsup:
 
Well, you did it again...... congrats on the IH, wheats and the silver. :thumbsup:
How did the other one turn out? You may need to go metal detecting for 8 hours and work for the lunch hour. Where could a person find a job like that? See ya at the meeting or this weekend. Gold Nuggets :icon_jokercolor:

Hi Dan ~ THANKS!!

I usually don't take too long of a lunch break but when we go downtown for lunch I load up the detector and hope to have some time to hunt! Sometimes it works out, but sometimes I don't have enough time. Little time is better than no time!

Later!
