My SE rewarded me with a first for me.:clapping:

Had our club hunt last Sat at one of our pounded to death spots, but some nice finds were found. Had about 12 people show up which is a good turn out for the club. Rain was in the forcast, but it held off till about 2:30 and then the skies opened up. Started out kind of slow as I was just going at a snails pace hoping to sniff out another Barber at an area where I got my last Barber quarter. Got a low tone figuring it might be a nickel and I was rewarded with a 1901 V nickel. Got a little clad and some junk and then it was lunch break time. Headed to another spot after lunch and got another low tone right off the bat. Dug down about 8 inches in the very wet mucky dirt and out pops another V nickel. Then about ten feet away from there I got yet another low tone and I couldn't believe my eyes. It was one more V nickel. The most V's I have ever gotten in a one day hunt was one so it was a nice first for me getting three and my SE was tuned into the V's on Sat. Got a little more clad and then I got a nice silver ring. The wheats were evading me, but I finally got two before the day was over. The wheaties were a 36 and a 45. My V's were 1901 1905 and my oldest V since I have been detecting was an1888. Some other finds by the other fellows were a 1898 Morgan silver dollar, a gold pocket watch and chain, two war nickels, a 1919 merc dime and one injun and another fellow also got a V nickel. My buddy Lee got a couple of wheaties, a no date V nickel and a 1935 silver quarter. All in all it was a great hunt and as always it's great to get out and swing a coil with good friends. I guess the old saying still goes that no place is completely hunted out and it was proven to me on Sat. Thanks for looking and GL & HH to everyone.

Congrats on three V's on one hunt, that is more than I have ever found in almost 30 years of hunting. Rain? In Washington State in February, gee, how unusual. Someday we will get back there for a visit, hopefully sooner than later.

Hey Eddie, thats pretty awesome for a "pounded site". Nothing is really worked out when you've got a Explorer though...as you are already aware!
Its looks like someone lost the pipe wrench to their "CLUE" game.

 

[Jason in ID]

Those are some nice looking nickles. Congrats! The pipe wrench looks like it's from the game Water Works.

 

[TokenDigger]

Nice finds - that's amazing to get three V nickels in one day. Nice ring and I really like the mini pipe wrench. If it's not from a board game it may be from Cracker Jack. HH

NIce. I wish I had those nickel signals down like you do. When I think I got a good nickel signal I am dissapointed with a pulltab. Great finds.

Good job Eddie.

The SE is serving you well. I knew you would like it.

 

[Eddie in Poulsbo]

Thanks Bryce. It's coming to me real slow, but I know it will all come together and my SE will help me find some more nice stuff down the road. Hope you can get out real soon.

Thanks widebody. Yep, the rain in coming and it has rained on our last three club hunts, but I guess we shouldn't complain about it compared to the weather back east. Thanks for the kind words and I hope to continue with more posts. HH.

Thanks rlammbo. I don't guess those nickel tones 100% of the time and I do dig my share of pull-tabs and every now and then I'll be rewarded with a gold ring. I know a lot of guys don't like to mess with digging what could be a pull-tab, but then again they might want to ask themselves was it really a pull-tab or could it have been a nickel or maybe even a gold ring. HH.

Thanks Bruce. It was a fun hunt and I can't wait for my other club hunt coming up on the 26th. Last time we were at this place it was cold as heck with about an inch of frost on the ground. Hope the snow melts real fast for you back there and you can start swinging your coil again. HH.

[Eddie in Poulsbo]

Thanks GR. Hey, I'm still waiting for those pictures of you out there with your snow blower. Hope you can get again real soon also. HH.

[Eddie in Poulsbo]

Thanks Dave. I do think that little pipe wrench is from the board game clue. I always wanted to try and find a monoppoly game piece, but that clue piece will do. Hope your snow melts real soon and you can get out and start finding some goodies and get em posted. HH.

Thanks teleman2525. I think I'm starting to like my SE pretty well, but no way will I ever give up my good ole XS. Hope you can get out again soon and get some more time under your belt with your SE. HH.

Thanks TokenDigger. I was pretty jacked about three V's in one day. That will be hard to beat for me for sure. Funny thing though after I dug that second one I just had a real strong gut feeling that third one was going to be a V also. I'm pretty sure that wrench is from the board game clue, but I might check out your Cracker Jack prize idea also. HH.
