So me and my brother took the one hour drive to T-town in search of some goodies. We were supposed to meet up with our friend but he never called us back 
so we ended up starting hunting at an old park by ourselves. There wasn't much there and all we found was some clad and a key. About halfway through hunting this park though a police officer showed up and told me there had been calls complaining about 2 men digging holes. I told him we were filling everything in and not trying to cause trouble. He asked me to find the last hole that I dug so he could see how good of a job we were doing. I literally couldn't find the spot of my last dig even though I knew the approximate 5'x5' area. He told me that if I couldn't even find where I had dug then we were fine to keep going lol. Anyways we quickly tired of this park and it was filled with trash so we were looking for something new. I called my Dad and he mentioned we should try detecting my uncle's house who lived near where we were. We headed on over there, and I am glad we did. We spent several hours here before going home for dinner but it was very well spent time. We found 14 wheats and the dates are as follows: 1942, 195? s, 1925 D, 1946, 1944 s, 1919 s, 1945 s(x2), 1941 s(x2), 1913, 1953 s(x2), and 1916. We have never found this many wheats in a day before, and have already found more wheat pennies this year then all of last year combined! We are pretty happy about that. The strange thing was we didn't find any silver despite finding 14 wheat pennies in the yard. We thought that was strange but we aren't complaining. We also found this cool old toy that is a badge and reads "Texas Ranger Sheriff". If anyone has much info on this thing I would love to know more about it. Also I found this cool token thing with the initials UAS on it. The front of it almost feels like canvas and it is just slightly bigger than a quarter. I've seen these before but can't remember what they are so if anyone has info on those thanks also! We had one of our best days of the year so far, and we wish you all happy hunting in the future.
