I met up with Noah today to hunt a town that I've never hunted before. We didn't start swinging until noon. We got a yes at the first house we tried. In the first 20 minutes, I dug a 1903 Barber dime and an Indian spill, an 1894 & 1883. I also dug an old button with a flower design.
After that, I moved to the side of the house and my first target was an 1891 Seated dime.
Man, It can't get any better than this. Wrong!
I moved to the back of the house and dug another 1903 Barber dime. A few minutes later I got a deep high tone that was jumping all over the place 12-41 up to 12-48. I had a hard time pinpointing it due to a bunch of iron in the ground. I finaly got to it about 9 inches down and under a root. A 1902 Barber Half. A few minutes later I get another Indian spill, a 1903 & 1906.
We hit another house across and I dug a 1924 Merc.
On the way home we stopped at one more house in the next town. ( I really wanted to dig a Rosie for my first ever dime grand slam). My first target was a 1939 merc. My second target was a bouncy 12-48. I turned over the plug an there was Walker sitting there, Awesome!! ( It gets better ) I reswept the hole and I still have a high tone. I pull out ANOTHER Walker and a 1945-S war nickel.
I only dug 2 clad Quarters, one Jefferson and 3 memorials all day. ( and a bunch of junk)
