Havent been doing a whole lot of hunting lately,actually very little at all for the last month or so,its been just unreal hot and the ground solid as a rock plus Ive been working entirely too much. I have managed to get out a few times for an hour or so here and there and my finds cup was about full so I thought Id post up.
Found my first V nickel at an old school I hunt with my buddy Kent,its in really awful shape but got a date of 1887 I believe. Dug up a cameo pin that I think may be gold because I cant find any corrosion or flaking,it isnt hallmarked though but I know religious items arent a lot of the time. Dug up an old soap token good for 3 cakes of laundry soap. Have been hunting a few demos near a major road and a railroad tracks,lot of ground to cover down there so ive been skipping around trying to pick some cherries out of the trash before the bulldozers finish the areas off. Dug a silver rosey over there one miserably hot day last week,was down there today and pulled a 24' merc and a silver rosey out of the same hole not 5 minutes before I had to leave. Have also dug up a dozen wheats in that area the oldest being a '14,couple of other odds and ends,a smashed(on railroad tracks I think)quarter,a really cool military button though Im not sure what its from,a tootsie toy truck,a very small coin I think though its corroded so bad I really cant tell,plus anything else you see in the pics,thanks for looking and HH...Shoot
