Finally was able to get out some this weekend while the temps were in the soaring 50s.
Met up with JCOBB to a place he found that had major potential, He ended up finding alot of old coins and Silvers
I found a 1920 Mercury dime about an hour into it. Then I started to dig Wheat penny after Wheat penny. I think I ended up with about 14 or 15 of them.
Then I found the 1950 Rosie, and this thing that Im guess is the top of a Tea Infusser? The good thing was that it DID test for Silver!
Right before I was redy to leave, I got a deep 80-81 hit on the ATP. I figured it was another wheat, When I pulled the plug, it was still inside the hole.
I started to pull the dirt out and saw a silver rim. Then I plucked out this beauty!
it says its a 1942 "Two Shillings" coin..I couldnt belive how big it was for the signal it was given.
So all in all...it was a very nice weekend!
I did the ultimate "fo-paw" on the foreign coin and cleaned it up, it wasnt in the best shape when i dug it, but after i got the gunk of, it looked to be in Great shape
