Summers over and now its time to tranision from metal detecting to CRHing!

good luck! I'm getting a garrett pocket pinpointed for christmas I hope, so I may do a bit of detecting this winter
 

I just bought the pin pointer for myself last month.

Makes detecting WAY funner. I find zinc pennies, and Westward nickles like nobodies business!
 

Just the opposite here. With the heat, ticks, chiggers, and weeds all but gone and the crops out of the fields, its metal detecting time!
 

I got $90 in dimes and $10 in pennies, ill see what I get!
 

I am predicting 1 silver roosevelt, 1963d, and 4 wheaties, 1957d x2, 1956, 1941... good luck!

I agree, these are the months I hit the woods very hard that are normally overgrown and ridden with ticks in the summer.. I am more of a roll hunter these days anyway, but winter is normally when I step my detecting up... The cellar holes are always very good to me in the winter..
 

Up here in Michigan snow + frozen ground+ cold = not much detecting for me.

I guess I could still do it now before the snow and frozen ground kicks in!
 

I like pizza

I always start detecting heavily in the winter.. No ticks and the growth has died down in the woods. This is when I check out all my spots in the woods..

I guess but what do you do about snow? Or do you get any?
 

Well I'm done and I ended up with two wheaties and two king George the 5th Canadian pennies and no silver but a funny dime which has the normal silver coulees part but there is just an indent where the copper color should be. Anyone know what it is?
 

Can you post a picture so we can see what you're asking about?

The pic is a bit blurry but from what I see I assume that the edge is painted. Could that explain what you are referring to it being "indented where the copper color should be"?
 

It's not painted its an indent...like a slice is missing
 

My guess would be someone took a grinder to the edge or it got pinched in a coin sorter. Maybe someone else has a more educated guess but without a better pic I'm not sure.
