Dan, this is payback for the capped bust you dug 5 feet from me at the cellar hole you guys invited me to hunt in August :poke::poke::poke::hystericallaugh::rofl::lolsign: :rofl::hystericallaugh::poke::poke::poke:
Just kidding :lol:
Okay guys I went back to my amazing 1824 property today for an hour of hunting after school. Too bad it gets dark so early. When we got there I decided to hunt right where I left off... where I dug the 8 reale... well that obviously paid off as I dug a fain signal... out popped an 1869 semi key date Indian with beautiful details as well as a cuff button from the same hole... that's a nice way to start. After that I get nothing for a while so I decide to head back towards the area I dig the seated, trime, Indians, from the last hunt and on my way there I get a beauty of an 1887 Indian head. Then I get a shallow 60s signal... expecting yet another pull tab as I have already dug about a dozen from this little strip. I get a nice 1900 v nickel! I then am heading back into the front yard when I get a faint 50s signal which turned out to be my second Washington bus fare token from the property. I also got two cuff button type thingies on iffy signals nearby.
But then , as the sun sets, the signals deplete and I am anxiously awaiting for the next iffy signal to pass under the coil. As I sweep in a spot for the 100th time , I get a faint blip of a high tone signal and when I popped out a tiny silver disk from the hole... I was pleasantly surprised . There it was ...a capped bust half dime. My first capped bust half dime ever!!! I thought i was digging another half dime out of the hole cause I was getting another hit with the pro pointer... turned out to be a big old rusty nail only an inch deeper. That's what was making the signal so iffy. Since A lot of the good signals were iffy signals most people would pass over... I am proud of myself for taking the time to test out these signals. Most of them are deep iron nails falsing but some are surprises like these ....
So physicked about this. This has been one hell of a week for me! Five pre1900s silvers (first ones since January 2013) and my first two 1700s silvers... I'm absolutely amazed at what this property has given up only for a few hours of hunting! The owners of the property are great people... it doesn't happen very often that people are interested in what you found. So glad that there is still nice people in this world. http://metaldetectingforum.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
