Fought The Cold Today!!!!! :punch:

Well-known member
So i got up bright and early this morning to FREEZE to death!!!! But i was able to come up with a few goodies :thumbup: I walked out in some open short grass and i could not even get my digger in the frozen ground!! So i retreated to the edge of the woods, and to some hire grass,, The ground was still a little stiff, but workable!! The first coin i found was a 1935 wheat cent!!! I walked up to the top of the hill and got some chirps.. I dug down around 6 inches and there it was!!! Next i came around the edge of the tree line in my pounded out park,,, I got a clean quarter signal,, Not deep at all... I actually thought it was going to be a clad quarter,, I dug down about three inches and saw silver!!! I was pretty pumped because by this time i have been there about an hour, only finding the wheat penny, and was about to leave.... So i searched around a bit more in the area of the quarter, and found a couple want to be Indian's.. "bottle caps" I hate those things!!!! After that i decided to walk across the road the a place my friends call Indian hill... They probably found around 25 to 40 Indians on this little hill.. The first target i dug was a real nice piece of iron :rage: I love those to!!! Finally i got a broken but interesting signal to dig... I opened up the hole and automatically saw another wheat 1935.. I covered the hole and rechecked,, and got a nickel signal,,, U opened the hole,, put the probe in and popped out a nasty old Buffalo nickel. 1936.. I covered the hole took two steps,, and got another nickel signal,,, dug down and got a 1945 P war nickel... After that i called it quiets,,, either that or frost bite lol.. Nothing to great today But still a decent day of detecting!!!!! Thanks for looking everyone,,, And good luck

Great digs.... im still stuck here in Florida and not coming home until spring:rofl: Lookin forward to some good digging when i get back to Indy. Are most of your indians coming in at 7-26?
 
Thanks Dew,,,
And you like rubbing that in,,, lol I use he smart screen,, but occasionally switch over just to check,, Yeah they hit around the 25 to 26 range,,, but you can usually tell just by the tone,, if you listen carefully!!!! Plus i have also noticed,, on occasion,, the deeper the coin,, It hits a little lower in the screen,, But the tone is still there!!! I know I'm going to dig it, before i even look at the screen!!!!
Good luck Dew

Cool digs!! You might want to try putting those nickles in a Wendys katsup foil and soak em for a couple of days to see if they clean up. Works on some of my nasty Buffalo's. The Sun was way nice here today but I had to work. Thanks for showin a gleam of hope.
