Had two free hours this afternoon, so I headed to the house that I hunted two other times and have pulled 11 wheat's, and a Barber dime from.
I got a 1949 wheat not too long into the hunt, then a little later got a MI state seal tag, then an old spoon, and a neat Good for 10 cents trade token. It is good for Colgate Ribbon Dental Cream. This is my first square token, and I can't believe how big it is. Also it has the most writing on a token I have seen. Then with about 35 minutes left I got a good signal not far from the main door of the house. As I was digging I suddenly seen a large silver reeded edge! I said cool a silver quarter, but no it was bigger than that! WOOO HOOO! Better yet a Walking Liberty Half dollar! 1923 S. It has been several years since I have dug one.
It made my day! I also dug a few clad coins, and several junk items. I need to get all the diggin in I can, because in about two weeks work will get busy.
