Finally was able to get out and do some detecting. Hit my favorite hot spot, the depleted bakery lot, and found a Barber dime, date apparently 1905, a Buff 1920, and two wheaties 1920 S and either 1920 or 1926.
The dime I found on a strip that is right next to someone elses property, literally 2 inches from his sidewalk. I haven't hit this strip much, even though the grass is not his property and he has told me before he doesn't mind me detecting there. There are usually kids running around there, so I tend to steer clear. Today it paid off. The Buff I found in an area by some bushes I must have gone over more than a dozen times before, and it was only about an inch down. My guess is that I have seen this signal before, but I was pulling out so much stuff last year that I might have just ignored a surface nickel hit, thinking it was junk or clad. Now that I'm digging the iffy ones, things like this Buff and the wheaties are starting to pop out.
Not the greatest haul, but sure beats the nothing I've been getting for most of this season.
