Went back to the old swimming hole my grandfather told me about yesterday, and it did not let me down. First hole I dug had a wheat and 2 buffalo nickels in it, so the day started off good. About five feet away from that got a sweet silver signal on the explorer, and out popped a beat up 1911D barber quarter. Went a while before I found the next silver signal, but when I did out popped another Barber this one a 1914 and in a bit better shape. Also dug the knife and a silver plated belt buckle. All in all it was a great day. Going to give this place a rest for a while and get back to some colonial hunting this weekend. :thumbsup:

Swimming holes are great. Any where near fresh water can be lucrative. I have found large cents, spanish sivers, two cent pieces, indian heads and more. Be sure to check out all the surounding areas and trails. I'm jelous of your spot.
