Got out with Lookn4seated on Monday and we went out to our go to spot that has yet to disappoint. You couldn't ask for a better day in January to be out hunting. The temperature was perfect and the ground was soft and dry enough not get mud on all the equipment.
I started out with some new settings on the detector and quickly changed them back to what I normally hunt with when I missed the 1916 Merc that Jon dug a few inches away from a bunches of wheaties that I had dug up. All was not lost as I later managed to pull out 1945 Merc and a 1946 Rosie later on. Back to the drawing board on some different settings.
Here are some pics of other notable finds from Monday's hunt. The first one is a really cool womens pin that has what I hope will turn out to be rubies. It looks like it was gold plated and most of it has worn off but I don't see a hallmark.
Next is a pretty cool belt buckle. To bad its not silver.
Last is a button with pretty cool design and a religious pennant.
All in all had a great hunt this early in the season and here is to hoping we get another day like Monday soon!
