Got to take off on another hunt today. First house I stopped at and the owner gave Me permission. The lot on both sides were hers also so I got to swing them
Too. Just the fronts. About 10 minutes in and I got the Turquoise ear ring about 7” down. Rang up a nice 92-93. One more Wheat, 1958D, and clad in the lot to the left and her yard. Wasn’t expecting much in the lot to the right.
First pass towards the sidewalk that used to run up to a house and I got an
87-88 a little scrambled but fairly solid. I dug it expecting a Wheat or copper Penny, and Ohhhhh, it was an 1899 Barber Dime about 6” down with iron throughout the hole. Great surprise!!
On the 3rd pass in that lot and I got a 1926D Merc about 5 1/2” deep!! 3 Silver Day!! Love it when that happens!!!
Stopped and got permission at another really nice spot. The trees in the yard were huge!! I just knew it was a Silver Yard, the older Gent game Me Permission and let his Wife know just before he left for an appointment, in front of Me.
After 10 minutes and I already had 4 clad Quarters and a 1910 V Nickel and she sticks her head out the door and says” that’ll be enough holes dug in My yard! You need to leave now !!” I grabbed My stuff, apologized for whatever reason and left.
That’s a bummer, but oh well!!
