My first gun find and the yard is done....

[diggin jimmy hoffa]

I've been hitting a private yard for the past couple of years and it amazes me what I have pulled that I know that I went over before with other detectors. This year I pulled my first Indian (1895) on April 1st and a week later to the day I pulled my first dated Buffalo (1913). I decided that I would hit that yard yesterday and see what else I could pull and found the small Pistol ornamentation thingy. I think that it probably came off of a kids cowboy hat, holster, or vest back in the day. That was the only good thing I found in the yard. I did dig a few iffy signals that ended up being those pesky old rusty nails that sound like silver and a couple of rusty bottle caps. I figured since there is not much trash in this yard I would dig a few of the iffies. The iffies won and I packed it in for the day. Here's the pics of the finsihed yard finds.

Nice finds. You never know a yard is detected out. You can find new stuff every year after a big freeze....Matt

Yeah JD,
I found that the week of our hunt get together and I distinctly remember saying to you that I had not found the Buffalo Nickle at that point. Wierd thing about that was that I had been over that area many times and it finally showed. I'm sure the same will come to you in the future.
