Todays finds

[fwcrawford]

I went back to an old house that I was told dated back to 1905-1910 today.
This is my second trip there and I have found 3 silver coins, but not one wheat penny yet.
I have found a few memorial pennies and clad dimes and quarters, but no wheats.
The wheat shown was found across the road where a train depot and later on a Post Office was.
The site now belongs to a salvage outfit and most of the yard around the house except for the front yard and directly behind the house is occupied
by shipping containers and gravel has been put down.
I was told the clothes line was located where the shipping containers are now... I wish I could have gotten in here before they disturbed the area, but heck, that front yard
is producing pretty good for me.
I also found a rope tensioner.. my first one.. I've seen plenty of them found.
Thanks for looking!

Three silvers in one day is outstanding, normally you'll find 10 wheat cents for every silver coin in our area here in WV so you not finding any is strange.

I agree.... I'm in Virginia, and what you say applies here too.

Nice Saves on the coins and rope tensioner fwcrawford. Ole' Virginni is still producing some great stuff and CW saves. I wish we could find a third of what y'all find in Virginia.

What an incredible day you had Felix!!
I’m glad you listened to me and went back
I believe more incredible finds are going to come from that yard. It might be trashy but taking your time like you did today gave you outstanding results!!
you are definitely on fire with your equinox but If you feel it could use a tune up, I’ll do it for free

Try being in ID..... going thru my coins recently and trying to make a list of what I have the ratio for me is closer to 20-25 wheat to silver. Any silver in any amount is a good day!!! But three....., dang!

Yeah usually I find 10 wheats before I find any silver! nice job Felix!

This year has been good so far, but more silver than wheats so far.
Back in Jan. I found 11 silver coins... 7 in one day, but only found about maybe 5-10 wheats.
My silver ratio has been rising since I got this Equinox, that’s for sure.
And I am digging deep penny signals too...

Great hunt. There has to be some wheats and maybe a few IHP's around there somewhere.

I think so too... have found about 28 coins so far there.
Surely I would have thought I would have found a wheat by now.

Maybe I have to give it that tune-up so you can find wheat pennies
