some keepers

[Xmarks]

Hello everyone. I finely had a hunt worth posting. I went to a hunted out park that is full of tiresome pull tab holes. I saw big old tree that was back in the bushes and picker vines. I thought to myself this tree is old and the area is grown over. I was sure someone else had to have this same thought but, there was only one way to find out. I went in and came out full of burrs and picker scratches! I managed a few keepers and one throw away. My 1st ever! Buffalo Nickel. 1936 1st one ever A 49 Canadian penny, 1950-S Rosey, and a 1919 Mercury dime! This is the best hunt I have had in a really long time. I'm still smiling. Thanks for looking everyone.

Almost forgot. The throw away. I had a hungry little tick that tried to become my detecting buddy. I caught him on my sleeve. Thank god.

Thanks for the pictures and the story. I wonder how many OLD trees have given up their coins around the country? They all seem to have them...

Thanks for looking everyone. Good hunts like that are getting scarce around here. I think we coulf form a metal detecting league with all the people detecting this area now. lol

it's a great hobby, even if you don't find anything. But so much better with some good finds. And you did well. Happy hunting next time too.
