Went hunting in the woods with Gothboi30 and we both found some goodies

[treasurefiend]

Well after seeing his post about if anyone was going hunting I decided to go hunting. I showed him how I hunt in the woods. We bounced around to more than a few spots trying to find some goodies on our 5+ hour hunt but I had a great time. The very first spot we went to was out in the middle of the woods (where I found my 4 last silvers from last year) but the only thing we found was a modern pocket spill. It had 2 quarters, 2 dimes, and 3 or 4 memorials - all clad... We bounced to another spot that I had lots of great finds over the last 2 years and our luck changed for the better. I really wanted to find a Buffalo Nickel on this hunt and sure enough I found a 1925 and also a 46 wheatie. Later I got a dime signal so I bent down and right as I was about to start a plug I saw a silver edge sticking out of the ground, I was pleasantly surprised with my new Sterling pendant. Later at another spot I got a bouncy dime/penny signal, well I found a mini pocket spill that had the 09, 26, 27, 30 wheaties in it.

I'll leave it to gothboi30 to say what he found. Awesome job bud, you'll have a pile of treasure in no time at all!!!

Nice Job TreasureFiend!
Glad Gothboi got someone to get out with. Thanks for offering a hunt to him. Makton and I took him out on Saturday, and I'd say it was probably less than encouraging since there was not even a zincoln between the 3 of us. Good finds! I am curious to see what Paul got.

Nice hunt Kermit!!

It's always good when the Buffalo's are hitting but that sterling is wonderful

That's really a nice looking pendant TF! Congrats on the wheats and Buff too!

Hi everyone!! I bet you all are just DROOLING waiting to see what my finds were....TreasureFiend was kind enough to share some of his spots with me today, and they DID NOT disappoint!! I GOT MY FIRST SILVER!!! YAY!! TF found a spot w/ a good signal, and was kind enough to let me dig it. A few minutes later, I noticed a silver edge sticking out of the plug. I pull it out, wash it off w/ some water...PRESTO...a beautiful '44 merc!! . A few minutes after that, I found a '47 Jefferson nickel right on the surface, just under the leaves. Later, in our 2nd spot, I dug a beat up '29 wheatie. All in all, a fun day...and my 1st ever md silver!! A HUGE THANKS TO TF, HIS EXPLORER, AND THE PROBE THAT GOES WITH IT FOR MAKING TODAY'S HUNT A MEMORABLE ONE!!! Thanks again!! Pics below.

Once you get that first silver, it's like finding that first gold in your pan.

Huge congrats Paul... That's a nice first silver

 

[treasurefiend]

Hey Paul did you loose your 1919 wheatie? The one you found close to my wheatie coin spill.

 

[Clad the Impaler]

TF- After looking at it, I think it's a '29...although it's so corroded/beat up it's hard to tell...

 

[Lowbatts]

Paul is on board and rocking with the Fiend. Great hunt guys! Here's to a silver summer for y'all!
