    3 House HUnt - Including the House with all the IH's

    My friend also owns two other properties in this town so I decided to detect those also.

    1st house - 1 wheat - 1955 and clad
    2nd house - 3 wheats - 1934,1938,1944 and clad, musket ball

    Now this third house is where I have been twice before and gotten 11 IH's, Barber dime, merc, buff. Was pretty sure that nothing else was left and Tony had remarked if I now thought the yard was cleaned out.
    Well Tony, no that yard is not yet cleaned out.

    Today I managed another IH, 1880 and another Barber dime, 1911 and a copper. This copper is really toasted so lets classify it as another New England disc. Also another boot heel plate. Strangely enough still not one wheat from this yard.

    Three more coins for the signature and I have already beat last years total....

    You are having a sweet year Al!
    "New England Disc"
    Did you find areas you haven't hit before in that yard? Did you go slower this go 'round?
    You know....if I had to pick a fav from this hunt...it'd be your boot plate. They're rare, and that one is in great condition. Way to go....keep it up!

    Drew, went super slow, Hi-Pro single frequency 2.5. To me the shocker was the copper.

    You keep getting a bit of luck with the last couple hunts. I'm actually surprised how smooth that musket ball is. Obvi grats on the silver and the boot plate. Thats two already this year.
