So…. I usually don’t post but today I feel like I need to. So I purchased a Nox 800 back in March (have about 30 hrs on it) and have had some luck (wheats, couple Indians, and a couple buffaloes), but silver had been eluding me. Well last week I found my first silver, a 1905 micro o barber dime. Talk about a rush when that popped out of the ground!
Anyway, after speaking to a close friend, he tells me that a house on his parents property was built in 1795 and that I should hunt it. Wasn’t going to argue. So today after work I spent about two hours hunting and didnt even make a dent in the area that needs covered. Found a few wheats
And my 2nd and 3rd silvers.
1918 merc and a 1837 seated liberty.
I also found the key and the button.
The button has some writing on the back and appears to read “orange coloxx gilt”. Can’t quite make all of it out.
