Today I got to do my first hunt at a place that farmer I helped got me in. I don't know who all read about it but It was located in this thread I started... http://www.findmall.com/read.php?58,2033095
He made a call to a neighboring farmer who had a home standing on his property that was supposed to have been built in 1840. The home had been abandoned in the mid 1950s.
I ended up only getting to hit the front third of the home area as there is trash everywhere and ended up switching to the 6" coil on my ctx which made the swinging slow. I ended up with what I think is a pretty productive hunt though and can't wait to get back out there. I got an 1853 seated dime, 1926 merc, 1943P silver nickel, 1946 nickel, 1899 Indian, 1910, 1915,1916,1917s,(4)1919, 1951d wheat pennies, and a crotal bell...
Hopefully there will be more to come as the farmer told me he has a few different places for me along with the farmers house I hit today with once we got to talking not only told me to come back whenever I want but also let me know there is an old bottle dump on the property at another location!
It is beginning to look like my deed may actually bring me some good Karma....
