Got a Buddy for the Day and She Out-fished Me! 1912 Kopek

[Nana40]

My daughter Shannon decided to join me today and we started at the old Dr.'s house that we went to last spring. Nothing there but the junk we left behind the last time....packed up went for lunch and I took her to the new place I have been frequenting for the past couple of weeks. Started out trying to find the pic-nic area that I had been told about but after wondering around there for a half hour we walked down to the house where I found the Luxembourg coin. We weren't there 10 minutes and she pulls out a 1912 Kopek! Then she gets a 1944 Mercury! I'm thinkin.....OMG! I better get to huntin hard! So after celebrating her finds I get busy....get a Wheat...then another...then a regular penny. She finds another Wheat and an old knife to wrap up her day. I find an old ring (not valuable) a car and a Dubarry lipstick tube. We only had about an hours worth of hunting there before dark was setting in so we reluctantly left the rest behind.....till next time!!!

I was told that the last person to live there (many years ago) was in WWII and that he may have brought them back.....

Thanks yall!!!

If spring ever comes, I'm thinking I should get my daughter to hunt with me.
My 'old man' goes with me some; but lotsa times it's 'grudgingly'

Nice finds! Congrats

 

[Shannon]

I go as often as I can with Nana, but with a 3 year old and expecting a new one, it's hard to find time!

No...not a new one. I have two...just in case someone will go with me!

Now after that great find maybe it won't be so difficult! 8)

I have to say that I had such a good time today! I think it was the best time I've EVER had! I love my 2 old coins! I love spending time with Nana!

Thanks my love....... I couldn't have been more excited about that find if I had found it myself!

Thanks yall!

Sounds like a great time! In about 5 more years I might try taking my daughter out hunting. Right now she would just play in the mud or run away.LOL
