We went back to the same place as the previous week (Illdigger and Ted) and had another very good day. First good find of the day for me was an 1867 shield nickle. Then came a 1918 Merc. Next was 7 wheaties 1937, 2-1944's, 1951d, 1952d, 1953d, 1958d and a 1941 nickle all in the same hole. Then to cap off the day a 1893 Indian head. I was a very happy hunter. I love Detecting eventhough not all hunts are good ones. It is a remarkable feeling when the old coins come out of the ground. I hope ever person out there detecting has as much fun as I do detecting. HH everyone.
