Met up with George nice and early today with the intention of doing some door knocking 1700s style. We drove by a place he has hit before and decided to pull in real quick, 1st target was the 64 roosie, I thought that was cool, 2 wheats later we decided to bail. Knocked a few doors and no answers at the doors and we didn't want to waste a lot of time so we knocked on 1 last door and got a yes, but the targets were slim, managed about 6 or 8 wheats there and left. Drove around a little more before we decided to hit yet another amazing 1700s site he has hit before and we spent about 2 hrs there, it started getting real hot out and we weren't finding much, that is before I decided to dig a weird signal, my VDIs were all over the place, the signal had a low iron grunt, mid tone, and that sweet high tone, dug down about 6-7 inches and found some nails mixed in with this sucker,
1945s Walker!! my first walker half ever!!!, I tried my damnedest to not rub on it but me being me, I rubbed the bloody hell out of it, lol!!, managed another couple wheats 
and the 1904 indian head before we decided to bail out and hit one last site hes been at before. Right away we both started hitting wheat after wheat, I got a cool "Excellor cattle fattener" fob/pin thingy, then finally I got a 1944 merc then the large cent that is almost totally un-identifiable to complete the Cent Trifecta! ,
that was the last target before we decided to take a walk towards the truck, got a 54 roosie on the way out and my last target was the cool "SOLARINE" watch fob down pretty deep beneath a layer of gravel. One of my favorite relics is the "Champion 6 Lever" lock face, ive seen em posted before and thought they were pretty cool, all in all it was a nice long/fun day out in almost perfect weather, the rain really helped!, Thanks for the fun hunt George!

Congrats!
Congrats on all those finds. The walker still eludes my coil. That IHP looks good and the dirt should come off easily.
I would have been happy with just a Indian or blank copper, but that silver half is sweet
