2 Cent Piece, Indian, and a few other goodies...

Finally had a chance to get out, great weather, ground thawed, and an desire to dig. Only had a couple hours and headed to the Park 1/2 mile from me. Got out of the car, walking to the slope where the sledders had been, on the ground were two bills, a $1 and a $10. I thought it was going to be a good day. I took my time slowly swinging the Explorer finding a quarter, a dime, a couple pennies before I hit a deeper signal(deeper than surface clad). I dug my first wheatie(1909), then another 1940. I slowed down and hit a low tone which turned out to be a 1943 War Nickel. I just continued to hunt slow and popped out the 1883 Indian, and the alarm went off as I got my last signal and what a pleasant surprise pulling out the 1868 2 Cent piece. What a way to end the day I was thinking looking along the ground as I walked back to the car. That's where I found the iPod(which works). Shame every day isn't like this!! To be honest, if I hadn't found anything I'd have been happy just to get out and play in the dirt!! The goodies just make it sweeter!!
 
Dang, heckuva deal!!

That 2 cent piece is definitely on my "to do" list. Great hunt, I think those ipods are around 50 bucks in the stores.
 
You got some green, some silver, some copper and even some tunes. Not a bad day at all. I'd be interested to see what that two-center looks like after it's cleaned up. Mine has been sitting in an olive oil bath for a long time. Very nice job for a couple hours of hunting.

you sure know how to hurt a guy. You were out digging and enjoying yourself and I was at work.LOL What kind of coil do you use on your Explorer now? I got a Pro coil at Christmas for my Explorer II, can't wait to try it out. Maybe I can get down to Richmond this year and hunt with your guys or you can come up here.
 
I've got it soaking right now, the "WE" is perfectly visible with no wear. Hopefully the rest of the coin will have no damage!
 
Hey Phil, I'm in Winchester every Sunday, but unfortunately working. Any time you want to come down let Derrell, Dave(legal in usa). or me know. I should have invited you down Moons ago, but you get some free time and a few days warning and there will be one or more of at least four guys down here that will swing with you!! I have been using the Sunray X-12 for the last year and I like the light weight and depth it gets!!
 
Funny thing about that iPod, I was showing legal in usa(Dave) the 2 cent piece and was going to throw the iPod away before Dave and the girl working with him told me it was worth a few bucks :surprised:.
 
For me the lotto is more like a donation fund for the state of Indiana. The only luck I had was getting there before anyone else did. It was a fun day I have to admit.

Hopefully if I can get you to go, they'll shoot at you so I can dig peacefully!!! Why are you complaining Mister Standing Liberty Quarter dude!!! Next Merc you find try not to slice it in half!!
 
See Dave, thats what happens when you let a Whites guy try to fix that coil. Sure hope he didn't screw that head up, I mean you ONLY found 50 gold rings last year!! Let me bring in some gold rings tomorrow and we can play with that coil and see if it is working...if not I'll call every five minutes when I know you're out detecting!!
 
Hey,finding 10's on the ground suits me just peachy!
