hello All. I don't normally post pics but I kind of liked this Crotal bell which was my first. I got permission to hunt a 1901 home in my hometown. The home is owned by an older couple named Jim and Joyce. They were so nice. Jim assured me that the house had been hunted before and it was unlikely that I would find anything but iron and bottle caps.
My very first dig was a 1911 wheat is that is a very pretty green followed by a coin spill with two 62 pennies and a 65 quarter. Almost in the silver. About 5 feet from the spill I found this intact Crotal bell. I never expected to really find a Crotal bell around here so I was pretty happy. Jim let me keep the bell which was awfully kind of him. (Normally I give all my finds to the homeowner).
Ill be heading back to visit Jim and Joyce and poke around their yard. I expect that there will much more there to find.
Happy hunting.
Ron
