I have been hunting a house site that dates back to the 40's and have found some nice things.
First trip yielded 2 wheaties and a 1943 merc dime.
Second trip gave up an old ring an a nice bullet.
Third trip I got a 1910 V nickel and an 1861 seated liberty half dollar. The half was only about 2-3" down which surprised me.
My buddy got a 1941 merc dime and 2 small caliber bullets. Not sure of the ID on his bullets, but I think the one I found is a .58 cal minnie ball. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this.
The half dollar is the oldest coin I have found so far... been detecting a little over a year.
Feel very blessed to have found the items I have found so far.
Needless to say I am hooked on this detecting business LOL!!
Thanks for looking and I have enjoyed looking at everyone else's post and finds!!
Happy hunting!!
