Went MD'n a couple hours this morning, I had planned on going for the day, but when I got to the fairgrounds It was locked up. :crying02: I had forgotten they take Veterans day as a holiday there... so reluctantly I worked the outside area of the fairgrounds..
I primarily worked along the fence line where I have seen photos of people congregating ... got myself 6 wheaties, then right along the old sidewalk a 1951 Washington.. then I hit a deep, 10-12 signal, coming up FE 15-17 & CO 46-48, It sounded good, but when pinpointed it went quiet.. but off a little to side it would sound off.. I was reluctant to dig as I thought for sure it was iron.. Pulled the plug, and no signal at all... I dug down, sure enough, in my shovel laid a sweet 1905 barber quarter... number 100... :happydance01: :peace:
Happy Veteran's Day to those who have served OUR GREAT NATION!!!!!
God Bless America!!!!
