Last two hunts

Mark (MO)

Met up with Bryce, Guv, JDD and Crowduck this past Saturday at a pounded park. I have to say that last time I was there with my stock coil I got skunked, so it's one more great experience with my SEF coil. . .I got skunked on the silver, but I found a few indians (one 1867 with full Liberty) and wheaties, in a place where I had never dug anything but trash, deep clad and modern wheats. The coil seems to be a keeper! JDD - the 1867 is the one we were trying to read the date off of, and you thought it was 1887. I thought it was a blur. . .lol.

I got out the weekend before and dug a little silver and a 2-center. I'm throwin' it all into one picture here, leaving out the wheats and nickels.

It was fun getting out again, and great to be hunting with Bryce and Guv, nice to meet a couple of new folks as well. Since Golddigger freakin' ABANDONED me to move out of town :cry: , I've been hunting solo if I get out at all. (Don't you feel terrible GD? :lmfao: ) The last couple of years have been tough to find the time to get out. Anyway. it was a good time, even though I had to cut it short to get some family time in, and hopefully we'll all do it again soon. And Ted - maybe you can make it next time!

Here are the pix. The 1867 indian is definitely the pick of the pile, although a little more soaking might be good. It surprised me what it was worth. I just looked it up out of curiosity since it was pre-1880s, which is about as old as I usually find.

Great job Mark. Looks like some great hunting and congrats on the small "tribe" of injuns:thumbup:

Keep it up.
 
and you have plentyu of silver to go along with the injuns.
That 1867 is a sweet one.
It was fun huntin' with you after a couple of years...and we'll do it again before long.
Take care
 
:clap: Nice finds, you had great company ,and You all did well.
 
Very NICE Mark!!!!!!! Looks like a exciting day to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Wow nice finds Mark from Missouri.
 
Very nice to hunt with you Mark. I thought that Indian had an 8 or a 6, could not really tell, glad it was a 6. I would trade the silver I found for an 1867 full liberty Indian, Great find. Your other finds look great too. Love that 2 cent piece. Agrain really nice to meet you, hope we can hunt together again.

It was a blast getting together with everyone. Hopefully, we'll do it again soon. Got out last night, and ended up with $3.90 in clad and some kind of token. . .some days are better than others, but detectin' is always good, no matter what pops out of the ground.

Good hunting,

Mark
