Hey all I finally got to go do a bit of detecting. I had just got started when i got an in between signal and it be the first 07 hunt started digging. got a coin that was thick and a wreath on the back. figured it was an ih and kept hunting. found a 1907 ih, a 1918, 1944 wheatie in short order after the 1st 1. started getting dark and i called it a day. started cleaning the coins. the 1st coin turned out to be a 1858 flying eagle penny. my first 1 unfortunately it is almost worn away. i took a bunch of pics and you can't see a thing. did a tracing to be sure. can't wait to get out again. good kuck and hh to all
