Hey everyone,
Here are my finds from the last few hunts. I ended up finding 5 silver coins, buffalo nickel, James Madison token, 1897 and 1906 Indians, a 2.2 gram 10k religious pendant, and a bunch of wheats.

The wheats takes me to over 5,000 career wheat pennies. If anyone knows how old the bullets are or what kind they are let me know. I found them at the same spot as the 2 Indians.

These finds takes me to 99 silver coins, 434 wheat pennies, and 5th gold for the year.

Jason

Unbelievable!!!!
Nice little chunk of yellow there. I managed a tiny one similar to that this year, but I think mine was like one gram.....
What did that one ring up? remember?
BTW, are these all land hunts? parks or what? Impressive total and variety !
Keep up the good work........
 
Very nice haul! Is there specific numbers to look for that gives you a better idea it's gold? I know there's such a big range but I dig all mid tones sometimes and all have been pull tabs just about. I love the pendant too cool HH!

Thanks Jeff! The gold came up at 12-17 on my Etrac. Most of the spots I hunt are pretty trashy so finding gold is tough. The park I found it at I have done a pretty good job cleaning it out so I'm at the point where I occasionally will dig the lower tones. Last year I only found one piece of gold. One of your posts earlier this year got me thinking I need to find more gold this year so I've been digging targets I wouldn't normally dig and it's paying off.
 
You have become "one with your machine". :lol: You certainly know the sounds of silver from your parks down there !
 
Silver and Indians

Nice going as usual Jason. Your killing it again with your great finds. I was wondering where the indian pennies read? For the last two years I have been trying to keep up with you on your silver coins. I'm at 101 this year. First time I'm ahead. Last year I ended up with 211. I never find any indians though? Probably cause my town dates back only to late 1930's. I'm starting to dig 12/38 or 39 now hoping to find indian pennies, but only coming up with zinc's.
HH everyone
