Went to one of my favorite parks here in Spokane where I have found a Cap Bust dime and some mini balls. Also like to find IHP's here. First signal I get rings up as a IHP at 7" dig down 7 inches and check the hole. faint signal in the middle of the hole. dig down 2 more inches and getting a louder signal in the hole. At 11 inches I pull out what looks like it's going to be a token, but no it says one cent and is dated 1807. My first US large cent ever and 3rd copper from Spokane. 15 minutes later I get a weird signal that is kind of jumpy but with IHP numbers but shows up in the nickel frequency. I dig down and pull out a 1882 IHP at 7". recheck the hole and get a strong 45 vdi and in the nickel frequency. It was a hot rock. Next signal was a 1919 D wheat. Then I dug a nickel signal and at 8" it turned out to be a bale seal another first ever. To top it all off my last signal of the day was a 19 vdi in the blue frequency at 6", thought I would have another V or Buffalo. Dug it out and it was a earring and bright and shiny. Marked 14 k and she's heavy. Now remember this is Spokane Wa we don't get large cents or even bale seals. I can't believe it happened let alone both of them in a 2 hour hunt. Thanks for looking. May you have a twi light zone day

I really like that 1807 Large Cent. Gold is always good in any shape or form. Congratulations on a super hunt.
