Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
DATE: 10-5-12
TIME: 1300 hours
LOCATION: old county park
DETECTOR: Minelab ETrac
TEAM: with my GF, AKA: DiggerBee
MISSION: detect a part of the park that no one really goes to

I had a record day in coin count. 50 coins! Oldest coin is a 1893 Indian Head Penny. Also found a silver button (Navy?) and an old horse sligh bell, that after I cleaned it out, still had the brass jingle ball in it!

Funny part of the day?
DiggerBee found a few coins, she reached her 1/2 hour detecting limit maximum time, and retired to reading her Nook. After I returned to the car to clean up the Indian head and wheatie, she shut the nook, grabbed her belt with the coin pouch, ProPointer and Lesche, turned on the AT Pro, and headed out shouting "where'd you find that old coin?!?!"
