PICTURES COMEING VERY SOON!
It was snowing when I went to the church about 32 degrees. In front of me I saw a big Oak tree and benches next to it.
I turned on my metal detector and almost the first sweep I already had a penny but not an old one. I figured the church would be from the civil war I was hoping to fined some old coins or even better a civil war bullet.
I went further to the tree hope that maybe someone in the late 1800s dropped a coin or two. But they were all memorial cents I found some quarters near the old sidewalk that I found out was there. Dimes and pennies that's all there was till I hit a huge but small signal I dug way down and finding an old Torch to weld with. Next I found a huge sheet of metal that I thought was a box. It took a long time to pull out.
I decided to jump over to the bus stop for when the area had kids. I found a quarter a dime and five pennies and some bottle caps too. But the great find I found there was a remote for a car to unlock, lock, or panic.
I saw my favorite house, a half mansion With a small but wide yard. WITH THE SIDE WALK RUNNING THOUGH THE YARD! I said I have to metal detect there. But the house was for sale how am I going to get permission? I walked over to the house and looked around I didn't see anyone or anything with a phone number. I thought logicaly that the side walk isn't there's its the state road company's I'm sure. I decided to metal detect the edges of the side walk and I'm happy I did. I found tones of coins including a 1941 wheat penny.
The next day I went back to the house and found a car setting in the drive way. I thought it may be a person getting ready to do something. I walked up the side walk to the ending point from yesterday. When the guy got out of the car with his two children. He said good evening. May I help you? I didn't even start digging or anything. I asked are you owner of this house? He said yes. I thought oh crap there was someone living here when I was digging holes in there yard. I said Do you know the sematart up the road. He said yes I said well I found a civil war bullet there. The guy seemed shocked and existed. I asked how old is the house? He said civil war period. I almost fell over I said I was going up the hill. " I lied I little" He said I could metal detect around here.
Boy was I in for a surprise.... I started at the top of the hill to over near the side walk. I found more pennies and dimes. I was digging a hole when the guy and his son came around the house to check to see what I found. I didn't pay much attention because I was look at the plus were the signal was coming from. I saw a edge of some thing. A token,no. But a silver mercury dime! I grabbed the coin and ran up to him saying oh my god just as you walked I found this! I showed him the coin I said it's a mercury dime he said oh wow. He gave it back when I looked at the date I said 1919! That's my oldest silver! He said wow 1919, well I'm going to head inside, Keep beeping.I went to the front of the house to where everyone walked into the house in all parts in time. I started swinging I started finding tons of wheat pennies I mean TONS! Well the guy and his children were leaving. The guy said good luck but I have to tell you something. I said What?. He said your fine where you are but don't go over there, have a nice day!. I thought OK.
This is the part where I freaked out!... I was heading to the edge of the side walk hoping to find silver and boy I did. While really close to the side walk I got a signal dime and a quarter signal,heehaw. Well I dug down and popped out a silver 1963 rosy my very first! Next I found the quarter a 1964! I was ready to just.....
After the hunts this very bad thing happened to my grandparents Boston Tarrieyer. The title is pop-eye.
I was sitting on the bed in the livening room. My grandmother with the dog on her lap. They resued two Australian Sheppard that "Mickey" the Boston didn't like. My grandmother got up to use the bathroom and Mickey jumped onto Boomer the astarlen Sheppard. I heard yelps and growls and the astranin shepad on its back. They were rolling and Mickey was trying to bite Boomers balls. The fight went on for 50 seconds. When it was over I had Mickey but that's not all. I saw drops of something I thought was drool. But it was red and starting to drip fast till it was pouring. grandma said OW MY GOD! Mickey hade his eye all the way out in was hanging by its nerves and bleeding all over the place. We had to do something but it was 12:00 at night. We found a vet place that is open 24 hours even on the holidays about a hour and a half away!. They had to cut off the eye and now Mickey in half blind. The other dog got away with just bite marks...
