I've got rabies!!!

A rabies dog tag that is!!!!! Man this past week has been mindblowing! I have had the Sunday hunt in LA with the silver and the Wheat pennies then the other night when I snuck out with BB and found the Merc and the silver ring and stuff and then today's hunt!

My little guy laid down to take a nap and my daughter is in St. Louis with her aunt and my oldest was sitting downstairs playing PS3. I asked him to keep an eye on his brother for an hour or two and I snuck off to hunt.

The second target I dug was my first ever DOG TAG! :o :D ;D Specifically a rabies vaccination tag. Belongs to Phlash from 1981. I covered the phone number because it is still a working number.

Then as I was playing around I dug a lot more junk and then it was time to go. I started working my way back to the car and I pulled the old Schrader Universal / E N Y USA handle out about 7 inches. It says on it Pat April 30-07 and Jul 9-0 but I cannot make out the last number on the July date :-( ???

Then I took a few steps more and got a quarter reading at ten inches. I dug down ten inches and pulled out a TRUCK!!!!!!!! This thing is sooooooooo cooooooooollllllllll. :thumbsup: :o ;D It says Hurley Kiddie toy made in USA and has a 460 stamped on it. The only thing missing is the back wheel. I have never found anything like this either and I was dumbfounded!

Then I stood up and moved my coil about 6 inches to the left and got another quarter signal at 4 inches and pulled out the old Tootsie Toy van!!!!!! Another first!!!!! :thumbsup: ;D :D

Then I found two keys, one is uncut! I have never found an uncut key before. Man the last couple of short hunts have been great.

I then found a 46 Wheat in rough shape. That is number 32 on the year and I only found 36 last year!!!! So I am doing well with the wheats.

An hour and 40 minutes and some great finds. I love this hobby. Thanks for looking.

By the way all three of my dimes are 1965! So close but not cigar

Re: I've got rabies!!!

Wahooooo!! That belly rub sure did the trick! You are a findin stuff like crazy!! Congrats my friend! ~hugs~
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

Hoooo Raaaaaaa!


Thanks Cynangyl


DF I tried really hard to find silver it just hid to good from me. That's ok though I'll take what I got. I love all the stuff I found today including the junk!!!!!
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

Take a look at the smallest item I dug it is in the upper left hand corner of the white paper. Third thing down from the top. It is really small but it gave an iffy signal so I dug it. I thing digging stuff like that helps you find the good stuff. It ended up being a small piece of foil.
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

bah! I am sure it has a fabulous history and as soon as you find out the history you will have to share it with us! :thumbsup:
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

Nice digs! All that good Karma is paying off! Heck, if you make it to the CTH2, 2009 could be your banner year, maybe even find a silver hoard.
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

One of my SECRET goals is to find just one thing to make the banner Tin. I don't think that will ever happen but I keep trying.

I have been trying to find a buffalo nickel but it hasn't happened yet! I am going somewhere Monday to hunt that has a good chance of finding one and I am going to do my best.

Thanks for the kind words..........
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

A great hour and a half! It's a toss up between the truck and the dog tag of which I like most.I'm gonna have to find out more about a belly rub.Congrats,Larry,you did good! Goodluck Monday in getting a buffalo,and I will keep it a secret if I find a silver spur at CTH2.
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

WSD you are going to have to find something good for me in KS so I wil send you some MAGIC batteries for whatever machine you are going to use and maybe my MAGIC digger too!!!!!
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

Trucks are cool.....aa
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

He wouldn't answer his phone today and I had to sneak off quick so I didn't wait for him. Sorry Kirk. Don't want to make anyone think poorly of me but when the opportunity presents itself I jump at every chance to hunt!!!!
 

Re: I've got rabies!!!

I got a message on my answering machine that said "Hey Bud.....it's Mastereagle (names withheld to protect the guilty) :evil4: and I was gonna go out today and harrass some old people and maybe steal some old toys from a young child in the poor part of town. If there is any time left...maybe we can metal detect some."

Obviously, I didn't pick up the phone. I pretended not to be home. :happy3:
