I got out tonight for a weird hunt. I hit the private school I've been hunting lately. It's given up 18 wheats now and no silver yet. I was hoping to find some tonight, if only a Rosie, but no luck. It's still been raining dang near every day, so conditions were lousy. I'm getting pretty tired of hunting in mud. The E-trac was cranky... I had to keep lowering sensitivity to get it to behave until I just gave in and switched to auto. Almost all of the targets I dug gave nasty signals - broken and inconsistent. Maybe it was the wet grass or mud all over everything? I wound up with 34 coins total worth a sorry $1.85. I dug one more wheat, a 1951 Canadian penny, and oddly enough a 1944 Vichy Franc. The Franc is a cool find, and believe it or not my second - I found the first (dated 1942) two summers ago at a different school. Other finds included a Parker pen, two Boy Scout woggles, a junk ring, a JC Penney's item which I do believe is from 1964-70, and lastly a small sterling silver dolphin pendant. Like I said, kind of a weird hunt, but I'll take it. The next week is a busy one for me so there likely won't be much time for detecting.
Here's and interesting link for all you ever wanted to know about the JC Penney's logo:
