Hi Folks!

Well, the weather is getting much cooler making it perfect for the Alabama Gang to get back together and hunt this season
Can't wait to meet them at Cracker Barrel for breakfast ....I wonder if Bean still thinks the weather is still too hot to detect?

Went back to the fort hoping to find some nice coins and/or relics. Decided to hunt an area in the woods next to a dried up pond behind the permit hut off the gravel road. I've found several silver coins close to the pond in the past, so I thought I'd give it another try detecting this area again. Got a strong 87 quarter reading on my XLT at two inches down. Started digging the target when my digger struck a root just below the surface Started digging a little bit more being very careful not to scratch the coin then used my pinpointer confirming by the sound it was indeed under the root. Used my finger to brush off the reeded edge revealing this! .... I love seeing the reeded edge of a silver coin against the soil know matter how it comes out of the ground which is one of the nicer things in this hobby to see in my opinion

I was hoping for a Barber since I haven't found one this year. I eased the coin out with my fingers and discovered it was a '36 Washington ....I'll still take it, however

Towards the end of the day, I got another nice 87 signal at another location on the fort next to an old bicycle trail, and dug another Washington. This time a '58

The '58 cleaned up nice and shiny
