This place has turned out to be the best place I've ever been granted permission to hunt, it just keeps on giving up the silver and 3 Walkers to boot!! The weather here has been wet and rainy, finally by Thursday it let up a bit with an off and on misting so I headed over to my spot after work. I left there with the '05o Barber Quarter, the '42 and '44 Mercs, the '43p and '45d War Nickels, a '35 Buffalo and 14 wheats. I went back over for a little while after work on Friday (same kind of weather) and dug the '20 Walker, a 44d Merc, the '46 and '46d Rosies, the '26 Buffalo, the Sioux City Transit token and 9 wheats. When I dug the Walker I was kind of expecting a token as the tone was way off for a Half, thats when I discovered the Buffalo in the same hole. All I can figure is that the nickel changed the tone just enough to make it a weird tone. I went over today and dug the '44d Walker, the '58d, '59d and '63d Rosies, a '36d Buffalo and 15 wheats. The Walker was right next to a can top and again the tone was way off. I also found my first marble over there while recovering a wheat. Thanks for looking and HH
