Bounty Hunter, ACE 250 with 9X12 coil
You just can't make this up!

Ok guys I've been hunting the last two days with the good old ACE 250 and loving it. So I goto a new park, it was called Lincoln Park under the freeway so I'm digging a strong quarter hit and as I'm digging my Washington a Ben Franklin falls next to me from the freeway about 75 feet above me!! So not a bad hall for day 7-8 with the ACE 250. I'm assuming it flew out of a car or semi driving on the road and fell in my lapp!! I would return it but I think it would be impossible to track this person down? But all and all $107.00 and my 2nd 1944 wheat penny in great shape, it was between to other pennies in the same hole, I guess it true that things come in three's! HH GL thanks for checking it out.

Whoa! That's amazing. Though when you said a Ben Franklin, I thought you meant a Franklin half-dollar till I scrolled down to the pic. ;D

Re: You just can't make this up!

I've heard of pennies from heaven -- but 100's?

clearly you were at the right place at the right time for sure and yep I totally agree that it would be impossible to track down the owner of it --good for you --bad for them but hey thats life at times.

uh by the way --your ace 250 is about 1/2 way self paid for now :wink:
 
Re: You just can't make this up!

I wanna hunt where you hunt! ;D :thumbsup:
 
Re: You just can't make this up!

Are you sure it's not a counterfeit bill ::) I've got an awesome scanner here at home that reproduces some real looking bills :o Nice hunt for a free 100 dollars. Can't go wrong there

That is an awesome find! You may want to go back and check the bushes for more that may have blown around. I have seen news stories of $10,000 in Bens gone with the wind! (there are 100 bills in a bank stack: 100x100=10,000)

Nice find!

Re: You just can't make this up!

I was thinking if the Ben Franklin half dollar hit him
falling from 75 feet , that wouldve left a heck of a mark...
I'll take a hundred spot over that half anyday !! :thumbsup:

Re: You just can't make this up!

I have to admit I too thought you were talking about a 50 cent piece. 100 bill is much better though... :thumbsup: Congrats and HH
