Got out today. I went and knocked on one door since I had to get back for an appointment for the dog. Well this house surprised me. I was detecting for nearly 2 hours and had maybe 2 wheats. Come to find out, the yard had been tilled up sometime in the past. There was no deep signals. Clad was mixed in with oldies. So I started over. I got the awesome Scovills flat button (1827-1840) first and the next hole was another CW button. I have gotten 2 of those buttons in as many weeks. Next decent target was the 1950 rosie mixed in with 3 wheats. Then I got an Indian signal at about 3". I expected a zincoln, but instead it was a BEAUTIFUL 1865 Indian. I have dug Indians in better shape, but not this old. Last good target at the house was an 1889 Indian.

The cool Chauffeur License was found at an old motel teardown the other day.

I have one of those NY chauffeur badges, too. Expires 1925. Mine was dug in Ithaca, NY. I think they might have frequently been thrown in the bushes when they expired.
