thanks Ted!

Great start to the season Dave!

Yep, I finally got out. Now we got more snow, and I am waiting for the river to crest as there is a flood threat.
I bet it is a little nicer in your location.

Nice finds Dave I guess this answers my question if you have been out?
Lol

Thanks T-DUB, yep I really like digging those old fobs.

Excellent haul there! A lot of digging, but those days are enjoyable. The Fob is super cool, congrats.

Thanks Elmy. We got dumped on with snow last night again. Winter never seems to end this year.

Oh no.......just when you got started !.........working in between DR. appointments and trying to keep the house up, farm, and grass mowing here....
Ole stick is fired up to go detecting after the 13 inch indian head penny he witnessed and being able to get a good ID on it and your last post was over the top for him....
Winters are way different now then they used to be....seems we have only 2 seasons now, it and summer.

Thanks! Yes, both were completely unexpected.
That what makes this hobby so fun.

Very interesting finds Dave!
That campaign fob is really a great find, especially since you have the other one too!
That is the first Canadian half dollar I have ever seen.
Thanks for posting these finds!!

thanks Jim! A Peace Dollar, no matter the condition would be a great find. I havent pulled one of those yet.

Very nice first hunt. Good on the fob and like the cast silver cat. Hate those lawn mower dings. Found a Peace dollar on a golf course being renovated back in Jan and it had tangled with a mower. Good start on your season. HH jim tn

Excellent finds!!!!

thanks for taking a look, Ronstar!

It simply reenforces that patience and work ethics pays off at some point. Either that or just plain dumb luck…….
Either way, you had a good hunt!!!!

Yep, winter never seems to end this year. I heard alot of the lakes still have alot of ice on them.

Hi Dave, planning on a fishing trip the end of May in the Park Rapids, area, so have been watching some of the lakes web cams for ice out. Notice you all have winter back with some decent amounts of snow accumulating in some places. Notice Fargo is getting a decent dose. Sure glad you got that recent hunt in. Take care! HH Jim tn

Great to see your posts again Dave. I've been watching for you and others to come out of hibernation. It was snowing here at my place yesterday, seems that this winter doesn't want to end! Yes, funny about the Election Fobs and how odd coincidences like that happen. One summer some 30 odd years ago I turned up 1913-S, 1913-D and 1913 Buffalo Nickels sequentially (in terms of Buffalo nickels) all from different areas of Utah. Too strange for sure.

Thanks again to you and all the others for posting of your finds and outings. I greatly look forward to them!
