Hi everyone,
Had a very good haul over the last 3 or 4 trips. This is about 10 hrs or so in the field.
It started last Tuesday. Me and my boy went out for a few hrs in the evening.
It was slow and at the end of the hunt I picked up a 28 merc. I was just about to leave and I got stung by a bee again.
4 times in a month. All in the same spot. On my ankle. I had to start wearing pants again.
I've been having bad reactions to them also from getting stung to much I guess. Whole leg and ankle would swell for 3 days.
After that healed up a little bit. I went out Friday Saturday And Sunday.
Friday night me and Lance headed to a old park I like to hunt. That night I got a 1893 0 rare date barber dime. I also got a 1919 S merc a 1916 buffalo and a 1903 Indian.
I was happy with that in a few hrs of hunting. My brother pulled only one coin but it was a good one. A 1863 fatty Indian.
Saturday, we decided to go hit another large set of woods I know of behind some turn of the century homes and older.
My Dad, met us there also. We hunted hard and I did well again. My Dad and Lance couldn't find anything. Lance found one Wheaties.
I got 6 wheat's a 1901 Indian a 36 merc and a token dated 1915. It was to vote for john Moore. A politician convention must have been going on. It says Primaries sept 21 1915.
I also found a nice eagle button. It has the shank attached and was made by the waterbury button co.
It was another good few hrs or so. I also got the independence day July 4 fob or tag.
Sunday, we decided to head back to the same area. But instead we went across the street to the other side of the neighborhood.
There's alot more trash over there. Things were some what slow. I got 2 wheat's almost right away.
Then on a wash off I found a awesome button with a old car and a man and women driving in it. It's not marked but I know it's old.
It got slow for awhile then I hit a 52 Roosevelt after awhile on a path.
I picked up 6 marbles in the area also. I found a little I mean little flag with a 3 letter initialing on it. Probably for a high school or something. It is back marked sterling though. The stick is missing from the bottom.
I also found what appears to be 2 pieces of silver. Don't know what they went to though. I found a really neat Dresser draw handle I think. It has a bunch of things written on it.
Then after a long 3 hr hunt about to pack it up. I hit a wheat at the base of a large tree. Then for the next 20 minutes or so I found 13 more and 2 nickles from the 40's.
A little Minny cache with no silver.
Overall I happy with the results. I know the area has more finds to offer. It's just a matter of finding the time to go get it.
I hope you all like the picks and story. The picks aren't as good as I would have like to gotten them. The lighting wasn't right so I get shadowing.
It's the best I can do for right now. If you got any questions or can tell me more about anything you see it would be appreciated.

Maybe you should change that or your soap so you smell different.
