Detector(s) used
F75 LTD, 1280X Aquanaut, & a Patriot (back-up/loaner)
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
Went out today with a few door knocks on my mind. No one at home for 2 of them and the other was "come back tomorrow and talk to my husband". :BangHead:

So I decided to go back to and old permission. I grabbed the LRP & ran (AM) all metal mode for the 1st 45 minutes and did not pull any good targets (beaver tails and trash). I switched to #4 mode. Ended up pulling a 1934 D Merc, 2 wheats 52D & ?? date. Also pulled 6 memorials.

I then decided to go to another older permission. I ran the F75 in AM for a little then went to Boost. Only dug 3 deep pieces of lead. I will continue to hit this site in AM or BP on occasion. This lot has given up over 160 coins but only 1 coin from the 1800s. There has to be some oldies there, but deeper than 9 to 10 inches.

The day was young so I went to another lightly hunted permission. Started with the F75 and then went back to the LRP to gain more experience with this detector. Pulled a neat Deere compact and an old Ford part (wheel bearing cap?) along with an old razor handle. Hit 2 other locations briefly on the way home.

I was hoping to keep my IHP roll going, seems like I pulled one or 2 every weekend this season (since July), but I atleast ended my silver drought.:occasion14:

Pretty merc, don't worry about the Indian heads...you've owned them this summer with that ratio, so I imagine you'll just find 4 or 5 next weekend. :thumbsup:
 

nice puzzle ring. hope yours is silver, got one 2 years ago--.925
 

Nice Merc! Congrats! The IHPs heard you were coming and high tailed it out of there!
 

Great hunt. You did much better than I did with yesterday AND today combined:BangHead:
 

Nice hunt as usual. Coins fear you.
 

It looks like you did well enough. Maybe if you left the gun in the car when you knock, you'd get more answers. ;)
 

Bummer, the permissions and Indians didn't happen today, but at least you got some silver. :thumbsup:
 

Nothing wrong at all with a little silver for the day!!! We'll take that!!!!:icon_thumleft:
 

Well done LD. GL&HH!
