Friday after work, I met up with Dave for a little door knocking. We tried finding a farm house, but no luck. We came across a little town and decided to try there. The second house we tried gave us a yes . My first good target was a nice sterling ring, followed by a 1920 merc, a 1944-P War nickel and a crusty 1882 Indian. At a house across the street, I dug a 1941-D merc.
Saturday, Tony joined us and we decided to try farm house knocking again. I didn't dig anything but a few relics most of the day, but the the last farm proved more productive. My first good find was a 1911 V nickel. I followed that with a 1941 merc and three Indians (1888, 1901,1907) plus a few wheats.
Sunday was brutal. Dave headed back south first thing Sunday morning, so Tony & I headed out for the day. We had a hard time finding anyone home and did a lot of driving around. We finally got a yes at a house in town and I dug an 1895 V nickel & a Hog Token. Back to the farms and still not much luck. The last permission of the day produced a 1906 Indian, a ball button and 3 hem weights.
I had a great time guys, Thanks for making the drive up!!!
