out pops a big one. <:

Got out for just enough this morning. Mostly because I received permission yesterday to hunt an old
farm house and with the rains moving in quickly for the next few days, I had to give it a quick test run. Curiosity got
the best of me. lol

I was able to hunt for about an hour in some very gusty wind before the drips turned to drizzle and then to horizontal rain. :angry:

Picked up a few wheats right off the bat and then a nice high pitch warble broke the silence of a steady iron null. The signal locked in
solid on the silver side of the screen. :yes:

As I was breaking the clump of dirt with my pinpointer, the half dollar finally broke free. <:

Although we do need the rain here, I am anxiously awaiting to get back to the farm house. :yes:

Good luck this weekend everybody!

Yeah... I've been eyeing this one since last year. :drool: I think there is a cellar hole on the property too. Was going to
snap some shots for the 'cellar dwellers' here to confirm, but the rain moved in too quick.
