    My Last Couple of Hunts!

    I went out with Tony and Noah last Saturday. My day wasn't nearly as productive as theirs, but I did manage a 1945 merc and a silver ring stamped 925.

    This past Saturday Noah and I hit another town and I did much better! The first house I dug a German 5 marc coin ring. During the course of the day we hit a few more houses and I ended up digging 3 Indians 1880, 1893 & 1894. A 1944 & 1945 merc, a 1907 barber dime, 1918 Buff and 17 wheats!!
