Been hunting a small spot in the ghetto that seems like it has never been hunted. That or people are put off by the OVERLOAD of trash and modern coinage and leave. Most of the signals you can't even go by pitch because there's so many targets. The first hunt I decided it was time to wrap it up when I was offered a reefer. :rofl: (That's a long story)
The first picture is of that hunt. I put in 5 hours, many of the coins came from the tot lots which I almost completely cleared out because the targets were easy to find in the old rocky sand. Got about 100 coins in sand just around a few swings in about a 5x4 yard patch. :shocked04: This place hasn't been updated or hunted in a long time, which is good for me. :thumbsup01:
My first hunt there produced 211 coins, one wheatie and a silver washington. (Also a junk ring and some other interesting non-coin finds)
2nd hunt (today) I put in 4 hours, and the old ones started hitting more this time. I found the SLQ after pulling out a clad quarter on edge and inch down and re checking my hole (it was about 4 inches down) :grin:
I got my first ever silver spill that didn't consist of 2 dimes. The silver washington, merc & wheatie were all in the same hole. :grin:
Then after I dug the last rosie I found about the other half of the clad then left. I was beat! The ring is 18K HGE. Bummer because It's a honker! :) Total of 167 coins today (4 silvers, 4 wheaties). Also got that odd token. Any ideas on that one??? :shocked01:
