Had several hours to hunt while waiting for one of my exchange students to take a test, so my friend Michelle and I were blessed w/ an 1800's home-site to hunt on our first try in knocking on doors. It was Michelle's first time ever to metal detect, and now she's hooked. I found several coins... (2) wheaties 1926 and a 1947 D, some clad and this beautiful officers sword belt plate that was ID as one from 1890 to 1920.... My first plate!! YEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!!!!
