I just knew that I would find something interesting today. I prayed a prayer of faith and gratitude for all that I was about to find while driving to the beach with my Minelab XS-Pro 2 and homemade scoop. Well I got to the saltwater beach and found that all access points were locked (no one allowed on the beach till April).
I then shot over to the salt water lake that is nearby only to find the gate lowered - no cars allowed through I didn't let it get me down for long, telling myself that I'd find something with or without my metal detector. I walked around the gate empty handed just to take a look - it was a real beautiful day!
After 20 minutes or so of enjoying the scenery (and giving thanks), I noticed a corroded penny laying on top of some gravel in an inch of water. I thought it may be a wheatie at best. What a nice surprise when I turned it over to discover it was an 1895 Indian Head! It is only the second one I've ever found and the first without a metal detector!
Faith is POWERFUL!
