The family and I went camping up by the Canadian border with my folks this weekend. There's not much for little old towns up here so I decided to drive 40 miles west this morning to hit one up.
I stopped by the park when I got there and found there was almost nothing to dig. Plus a guy came over and said they were doing a yearly fire department meal in the park later and he wasn't too keen about me digging up the park. I told him that's no problem since my plugs kept falling apart and were kind of messy.
I left the park and drove around town looking for curb strips and found 2 blocks worth on the edge of town.
For half of it I wasn't digging anything so I headed back towards my truck. I was almost back when I came across a good wheatie signal. Dug out the plug and out pops a 1910 Wheatie! Good deal. Put the plug back in and noticed there was another similar signal. I popped the plug back out and dug out a 1917-D Wheatie! Bonus!
I put the plug back in and found there was one more lower pitched signal just like an Indianhead..... I popped out the plug yet again and out comes a 1904 Indianhead penny! Sweet!
After that there was nothing left so I kept walking. I went down the sidewalk and found nothing more so decided to turn around and rescan everything.
I came back to where I dug the spill and about a foot over got another Wheatie signal. Dug out the plug and out pops a 1920 Wheatie!
I dug a 1959-D memorial earlier in the hunt to complete the trifecta and also got a dress weight and old suspenders buckle.
Pretty good morning hunt...... It's a town I'll have to go back to.
