Todays fall hunt!:detecting:

[jim tn]

A nice touch of fall was in the air this morning and I opted to give the demo housing site another shot this morning. On my way to the site at 6:30 my car temp. was reading 44-46. And, there was a nice n w wind.

As is typical for this site now, not a lot of good targets showed up this morning, but 3 items of silver did along with 4 wheat cents. The 1943p war nickel came along pretty early in my four hour hunt. The 1919 Mercury came from along the edge of a parking area and was was pretty stained from the tarmac. A good soda rub cleaned it and the nickel fairly decently compared to how they looked coming out of the ground. About ten minutes before the end of my hunt I got a broken, kind of scratchy high tone tic that sounded like it needed investigating. Circling the target I finally got a small sounding 81-82 reading. Found the target in the clod, a marked MEXICO 925 ring with maybe a small black onyx stone. The 4 wheats were 2x44 and 2x 46. HH jim tn

Nice job! About how deep are some of your good silver finds?

Good finds congrats on the silver.

Those pottery shards are a good sign of old targets in the area. You got some great finds Jim.

That place sounds like you got very familiar with and know how to work it and what to listen for..seems like a relaxing place that still holds treasure if a guy takes his time and works it a bit, like you just did again!
