Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
I ALWAYS have my metal detecting equipment with me in the truck - you just never know !

I was out on a few job estimates last week about 30 miles South of where I live.
After the estimate I stopped to get a better look at an old abandoned farm house I spotted on the way in.
A lot of the grass areas around the old house looked short enough to swing.
Then I heard a tractor coming down the hill - turned out to be the owner of the abandoned house.
He told me I could hunt the yard because they were going to tear the house down soon anyway.

I found a total of (9) coins in less than two hours - then it started to rain.
Wow ... Four Silver coins - Three 1800's coins - what a killer hunt !
Not shown in the photo's here were two Wheat Cents from - 1928 & 1940 and a 2001 State Quarter.
(Both sides of the Seated Dime are in excellent condition - just glare from the plastic in the coin flip)

Good Hunting !

Man, did you ever undersell these finds! That was an amazing hunt with some fantastic coins! Well done!
 
Nice coin finds. Hopefully you're able to go back for more detecting.

Great recoveries the walking liberty still eludes me. Love those 'impromptu' hunts, kinda kills my battery but my machine never leaves my trunk either.
 
Way to go buddy :)
Let me say something about Mr. E-Trac-Ohio I know this person fairly well. The thinks he has done and accomplished in life are AMAZING !!! Me and E-trac do detecting together quite a bit when he can go when planned. He started with a E-trac and then in the last 5 or 6 years switched to a XP Deus.He knows that machine backwards AND FORWARDS. He also knows when at a SPOT to detect where to detect !! . If anyone is going to find anything I am quite sure it will be him. He is also very good at research. E-trac lives about 20 miles from me. When i had my open heart surgery last Jan. He would drive up here and help my wife put out round bales for my horses.
I want to thank GOD for letting him trust me and give me his phone number. Mr. E-Trac know if he NEEDS anything he
can could on me !!!!

Just a little about a GREAT FRIEND of MINE !!!
