Got a few keepers this week, Thrillatahunt came agien (thanks agien rick) and we dug a pretty big area out. It was hot but we worked from 7 to 3:30 Got a silver washinton quarter, 1857 half dime, 1876 s dime (earlier this week) and a token with the name fred fearnot on one side his pic, and a name i cant read yet thats says -------- george and a pic , some clad, lots of marbals, 3 good cokacola bottles (houston,waco,cameron texas) with big letters on the bottom. I'v only seen them with small letters B-4, One spot was just to tough to dig so we had to pass it by.

Fred Fearnot was a dime store paperback in the early 1900's
Im trying to scan the coins but having a problem right now.

Is this another store dig Texasconnection? It seems like that town has been really good to you!! Do you live there or nearby and the people are your neighbors? Small towns are so cool and the people are really friendly!! Have fun getting the goodies, Tom

Surfin, ozarkas are a mix of cactus juice and tequila, (i put alittle lime in mine, and keep it in a gallon jug in the cooler.) Great way to bet the Texas heat.
Tool man, Yup its another store dig, Not near as generous as the last but were still getting a few oldies. i live close and have been getting a reputation as the local relic Hunter.
