Well, made it out several times this week including a yard hunt on Tuesday afternoon/evening which ended up being a bit of a bust. The house was in an old area of Hebron, IL but the yard had been manipulated alot. We got four wheats and this lonely 1892IH from that yard. Here are some of my more interesting finds from the week.

I wanna be the guy that sells toy guns lol It amazes me on how many are lost. But some of them are worth a little bit too :clapping: Nice couple of finds and at least that house gave up a nice Indian. I wonder how many coins got turned over and sit 2 feet deep at that place :thinkingabout: It always feels good to get out and detect :happydance01:

Nice... love that IH. I like getting the IH's and it's an extra perk when they get into the 1800's! :happydance01:
You had some nice hunts. I'm betting silver is just around the corner for you this week. :yes:
We need to meet in the middle and get a hunt in soon. Any openings the last two weeks of May?

Congrats on the IH thumbsup01 I love the toy gun parts! :clapping: I've found lots of parts and pieces myself and a couple whole ones that were nice enough for a spot in display case.
