Once again, I joined Al, Mike, and Steve for some digging on a hundred year old golf course. The police stopped to question us, as did the previous owner, but the course is now in Al's family and he has free "range."

Al and I work on "detectorist" time...8am means 7:45...so we started early and unbelievably, I had a couple wheats and the seated coin in my pocket by the designated meet time! :shocked01:

A huge debt of gratitude is owed to Al who makes all these hunts possible!! :notworthy:

One of these things is not like the others! :thumbsup01:

Congrats on the beautiful 1853 Seated Dime, Drew! What an incredible find! This golf course is amazing! I am so jealous of all of the finds that are coming out of it! :envious:

Nice Seated! I can't believe the previous owner questioned you guys. What business is it of his?

Thanks, guys! I know Donnie...I actually said to the guy, "oh, so you're NOT the owner now?!"

I think I sold that crotal bell short in the post...it's really nice!

Very nice hunt Drew. It was funny to hear Mike shout the length of the 18th hole "hey Al...The cops want to kick us out". Not on my watch. Huge congrats on that seated and all those other keepers. My hunt today is not worthy of a post so maybe tomorrow...
It looks like Steve has a draped bust LC or maybe even a Liberty Cap. We will have to wait for his post.
Thanks for making the long trek over here. Hopefully we'll do it again.

Fun hunt today guys! I turned and looked down the fairway and everyone was gone! Glad I stayed a little longer as I only had a wheat. I pulled this out looks like a draped bust. Anyone have any thoughts on it? Al thanks again and Drew man you slammed it. Great job out there!6382963830

Great bunch of finds once again. Big congrats on the seated, and that crotal looks pretty sweet! Funny how so many people concern themselves in other people's business. Guess they aren't happy unless they ruin someone else's.

No date on that, Steve? Congrats! That reverse looks clean!
Did you guys see that dog chasing me?

Awesome hunting guys! What a spot ! That's what hunting should be like . I'm so glad the want- to- be party poopers can't stifle your hunting . On a sad note , my nearby spot that has been keeping me going all these years has been ruined. I went there last night and the whole field has had a good six inches of topsoil trucked in and it is pure , no garbage , pebbles , pulltabs , coins or anything . All the new sprinkler heads are covered and all control boxes are in .I'm done there.
Keep up the good work and get all you can .

Thanks Drew , I hope so too . It was amazing how fast they completed that last stage , I thought I could get in at least a couple of more hunts . I'm so glad I got in that last decent hunt .

Al cleaned it up today and thinks he made out an "07" so maybe 1807. Missed the dog chasing you did he have bad intentions? I was hoping you came today to show me where to hunt! Oh I did pull out two wheats in the area of your seated dime.
