Winter Storm Coming Tonight, But...

[Natman]

...I just had to get out ONE LAST TIME!!!

The storm is coming, but weather was nice today (in the upper 30's) and the ground's not frozen (yet) so I went up the road to check a couple of private yards I hunted to death over the summer. I dug almost any signal, even if I thought it was a penny. I found 30 pennies, 3 nickels, a dime, a 1958 Franc coin, a small padlock, a kid's initial ring that looks very old (neighborhood developed in '58) and wouldn't you know it, a metal soldier holding a metal detector! Looks like the coil is long gone, but he's still wearing his headphones!

Hope everyone had a great year! For you hunt-all-year-round people, please keep us unfortunates inspired and entertained over the winter by posting your neat finds

Beautiful frenchie Nat, congrats on the sweet digs. Man, too bad about the coil missing but that soldier is really cool. Love that! Glad you got out. Our ground has been froze like a rock for weeks, it's hopeless.

Smiles!

the storm your brewing is headed this way, but I'm getting up early tomorrow and going md'ing anyway. I want to try the pulse 8 with the control box on my chest rig. it gets heavy too soon on the shaft on dry land.

very nice finds, the soldier is way too cool. I think I'd take a small washer and glue it on then paint it. my dad had alot of lead soldier molds, I'll have to check out if he has one with the mine detector.

And you said you were done ! Good job Nat! Love the soldier dude! We broke record high temps here this week. 80's for goodness sake! Sorry about your frozen ground and up coming storm! Bundle up!!

Take care,

Nice digs Nat. We got some snow comin' here too and I thought about one more hunt....but it didn't happen today.

 

[Natman]

Thanks you guys, I woke up around 5 a.m. and looked outside..we got the snow and there's more coming..temps will moderate though into the 40's-50s next week (maybe another hunt before Christmas)
