Weekend Hunt Day 2 Nets a Second I.T. Token.

After day one, I had no clue that I was going to have a second day of great finds..
When I got there, I again headed up the sidewalk and found more pre1920 wheats. After the sidewalk I headed back up into the yard to start where I had left off the day before.. Immediately, I found a 1914D wheat cent.. I was pretty sure that it might have been a scarcer find but didn't realize it's value till I got home.

After getting the dirt off of it I looked it up and was shocked at what the value started out at..

I continued up the line I was working and found these two Rabies vaccination tags from 1949.

A few feet further came a rusty "Old Timer" pocket knife. Continuing on I got a 94-95 on the Deus and out came my first silver of the day..

I needed some water to clean it off, so I went next door to fill a bottle up. While I was there I gained permission there.
Moving on I found my first Indian Head Cent of the day.. A 1901. Later in the day I moved over into the second yard I had gain permission, The yard was super trashy but managed a second 1901 Indian Head.

Only moving a few feet back into the original yard I got a high "quarter" sound that was right on the top of the surface and out comes my second silver of the day, but this was a ring. It looks like bones, but it does say .925 and it has a hallmark.

Only moving a few more feet into my grid I got another repeatable tone and dug... The weird thing about this ring is back in November when I found my first Indian Territory token I also found a smashed ring just like this one.. That hunt was in a different yard over 6 blocks away..Very odd coincidence.

After finishing my grid, I moved back into the middle of the yard and started concentrating on questionable signals and immediately dug these two Buffalo's..

Feeling tired and was getting ready to go home, I told myself, "one more signal"... what a surprise...

Do you remember what the Buffalo nickles came in as on the VID and what frequency were you using?? Nice yard hunt there.
I found a shield nickel over the weekend. out of the dirt using 12khz it rings up at 55 + or - a point or 2.
 
I have had a couple of weird readings on two of my buffaloes.. normally around 62 on 17 khz, but I had two that one hit 75 and the other 78.. I couldn't explain it for anything.. out of the ground 62...

thanks Marc... posted todays finds a few minutes ago..
A 2 hour hunt and a 5cent cigar
 
Evan - Some really nice finds. Like seeing what you think about the Deus, seems like a great machine.

Favorite line - "I needed some water to clean it off, so I went next door to fill a bottle up. While I was there I gained permission there."
ehehe, LOL. You are like a machine when it comes to gaining permission and thanks for sharing those other tips. Really good ideas. My Neighborhood here in Germany is around 500 years old, at least at the center (which is where I live). I really do need to befriend some of the neighbors!

Take care and keep it up,
Albert
 
Awesome hunt. Congrats on the semi key date wheat and the rest of the cool finds.

its all in the presentation.. I usually start by asking to hunt the sidewalk to the road which usually belongs to the city anyway..if they seem interested, I add "and if I find some interesting finds, would you mind if I sample your yard to see if more is there.. heck if I find any jewelry and you can identify it, you can keep it.. and If I find gold coins, I will split the spot value or coin value which ever is higher"... that gets them fired up..lol
