My first post here - IH, Buffalo, and Silver

Just found the forum and it looks to be a good one!!

I didn't have a chance to hunt this weekend but I was able to pull this stuff Friday 13th from a yard I've hunted repeatedly and have always pulled some good finds from each time. I used my MXT this time around. I started in an area I haven't hit too hard before and found a nice '26 Wheat and a real nice 1906 Indian Head, not sure how I missed them before but I did. The IH came in kind of weak so I triple checked the signal from different directions and it continually came up in the high 70's VDI, DIG I did. Was down about 6-7, a nice start to the beautiful afternoon. Proceeded further into the back corner of the yard where I have found Merc's, wheats, and a nice SLQ. After checking every signal several times I ended up digging the following: a Sterling St. Christopher Catholic pendant, a worn out Buffalo, the Huylro's?? brass braclet, a melted penny??, and the porcelain drawer pull.

The 2 dog tags were from a Veteran's Day 3rd trip to the old farm house which my son, a friend, and myself found a lot of silver finds from last weekend. We kind of strip that place clean as these dog tags and my son's 54-d nickle were the only finds for 2 hours worth of hunting.

Enjoy the pic's.

Great finds and beautiful photos! It sounds like you have some excellent opportunities for private property detecting ;) Can't wait to see what other things you dig! :) I'm going to have to get up enough courage to ask permission around here.
 
Great group of finds! thumbsup01 The silver medal is neat in that it opens like that. I don't think I have ever seen one posted like that before.
 
Very cool finds indeed. I'm with the rest here as I haven't seen a medal like that either. Good going. thumbsup01
 
Nice group of finds for sure. The Indian and Wheat held up real nice. That's always been the good side of house hunting....lots of different finds. The bad side:huh: TONS of trash!!! Great digs.
