Rain and Mud

[Rich in Texas]

I had a very stressful week at work and was going detecting yesterday no matter what. It was raining so I took my Classic III not wanting to risk my newer ones. I wrapped it in a trash bag and went digging. I detected until things were so covered with mud that it was hard to continue. In the pic are a Pistol Petes Token, an O.K. Vender Token, a 1937 Wheatie, pewter button, and about 10" of gold chain. Also got several wheaties from the 50's. I am heading back to the spot today with the MXT and start gridding it off
No silver yet but the gold is good!

Good thing you are in Texas, don't want any MXT copetition here in Oklahoma where Pistol Pete lived. He He ! Actually I have talked to old timers that knew him. One told me he once drove by and saw him sitting in the outhouse with the door open. I didn't think to ask him if he still had his pistol on.
True story.
