Sunday Afternoon Hunt - got a couple of keepers

Digger Don

New member
We got out one last time before the weekend ended. We hunted a house of a friend that was built in 1847. He and I were talking when Digger Al got his second signal, a solid 12-35 at 7'. I looked at my friend and said " on a perfect day, it would be an old Indian Head." A couple of minutes later Alec looked up,smiled and said I guess its a perfect day. He dug a 1904 Indian. My friend was amazed that we could tell what it was even before he dug it. We didn't tell him that 99% of the time it would have been a Memorial Penny Or pull tab. About a half hour later I dug a 1947 Rosie. Before we left, we got three Wheat Cents each and Alec dug some kind of an oriental piece about the size of a half Dollar. All in All a very good hunt for us.

Nice bunch of coins! But that ornamental piece is puzzling :thinkingabout: Is that a dragon pelican eating a fish next to a Japanese temple with alien writing down below? :lol: I don't even know how to Google that one :confused: Great hunt Don

Congrats on some really nice finds . I really like the Indian and the medallion with what I guess is an Ibis having a successful hunt .
 
nice looking wheats and indian Don , wish ours held up that well in the soil around here. the other item could be a top to somekind of insense burner.

He will be hunting with you before you know it. I call it " building memories" . we have a blast detecting together
 
You guys are finding keepers with regularity now! Very impressive totals, especially the silver quarters and halves!

I remember just a few weeks ago when neither of you had found an Indian Head, now you have 14 of them!

You guys are becoming E-Trac masters! :clapping:

:congrats:
