Thread: Hunting with Ron and Dave

    Hunting with Ron and Dave

    All three of us attempted to find keepers from a new park this morning... and I do mean attempted. It was tough going.
    Although the fall weather was prefect for hunting, the good coins hid very well.

    I was able to find a couple for my pocket though. Found my 4th Ford Model T key this morning.
    I enjoy adding these kinds of items to my collection.


    Hope you all dig a shinny one this weekend.

    It was stingy indeed. As I mentioned to you earlier... the park was lower on my list to hit because
    of it's close proximity to Hazleton, Iowa. lol I've never met the guy, but I suspected it was going to be a tough place to find keepers.

    Fun getting out with you and Ron nonetheless. Hunts like these are what make the silver ones so much fun.

    Any time an Indian Head comes out of the ground it's a successful hunt in my book! That one is very decent looking, Joe. Pretty neat Model T key too!

    Great looking IH, and Tony is right. Any time you can pull a good looking one out of the ground it is a successful hunt. Congrats.

    You know I gotta be honest here. I'm a Chevy man. |)
