Metal Detecting
Met up with Park Pirate this morning at our favorite hunted out park. First find of the day was a 1907 nickel with a bonus wheat cent stuck to it. Was hoping it was a V nickel / indian head cent combo but had to settle for the wheatie. Later in the hunt I get a deep hit that comes in like a modern screw cap but because its way down the depth meter I decide to dig it. Good thing I did as I turned out to be an 1852 silver three cent piece. Only the second one I've dug in nearly 30 years of metal detecting. Felt great to dig something good as this has been a terrible year for me.
