To keep up on the hunts at the demo house:

Monday 15th:
Almost didn't find a silver Monday. On my way back to the truck, in the pitch black darkness, in a area I've went over plenty of times, 3 inches deep, I get a 12-46! :shocked04:
A 1945 Merc keeps the streak alive! :yahoo:


Wednesday 17th:
1 more merc, 3 more wheats , a marble, and a dough boy :lol: I love finding marbles!


Saturday 20th:
The same guy who got me permission for the demo house also secured me a old abandoned farm house. So Ted and I went and checked it out. Probably built in the mid to late 1800's. A real drooler!:drool: A little over grown , but the place you dream of hunting! :daydream: But a total let down!:crying02: Not one old coin between the two of us! I did find a cool old button. At least I hope it's old. But from what I've seen on-line.... it might be a re-pop.
It appears to be a New York Militia staff button. :dontknow: Any help confirming or denying this ID is greatly appreciated :yes:. (Trying to load some more pictures but PB won't take them right now for some reason. Post them when I can)


After a hour plus there we went to the demo house. We each nabbed a silver. Ted got a Merc. I got another silver Washington! :shocked04: Buried with 2 wheaties. Also found a IH.


Things are definatly slowing way down at the demo site. But I'll be going back......;)

Thanks for lookin' & HH! :peace:
 
:shocked03: someone get that soldier a medic !! seriously congrats on the silver Tim:thumbsup02: care to show us the reverse of that N.Y. button ??
 
Great finds ,Tim. The Demo house may be slowing down, but your still finding Silver.
Thats all that matters. Good luck on your return hunts there.
 
The demo house is still giving up the goods! That place has been a really sweet site for you!

Have you been digging the nickel signals? There might be a gold ring there, you never know.

Congrats on the finds! :clapping:

Thanks Tony! It has been a really good site! As a matter of fact I have been digging the nickle signals. I'm hoping there's a gold coin laying around there for me to find! :crossfingers:

Thanks Al! I'm thinking the dough boy was left outside by young Johnny back in the day and it got stepped on or something. :dontknow: Too bad.
