My Dad finally secured a permission we have been trying to get for a few months now. The new permission was a Northeast GA home built in 1900. I picked him up and we were swinging by 10:30.

We split up and took different sides of the front yard and on my first pass along a fence that sits atop an old stone wall I hit a spill. 34 GW, 45 Mercury and a couple wheats (my first silver spill and my first merc ). This gives me 5 silvers FTY.

A few lines later I came to the edge of the yard, swung out to start another and at the end of my swing I get a tight mid tone. 1888 IHP, also a first and pre dates the home by 12 years. Later on I got another spill which gave me my first buffalo plus 2 more wheats.

I ended the day with 2 silvers, IHP, buff, and 9 wheats making this my best hunt of the year. I don't get out near as often as I'd like so this was an awesome hunt. We still have the backyard left too.

I like the emerald green patina on the IH. And the "peekaboo" in-situ pix :cool3:
 
That one photo next to a white rock looks like it could be quartz!!! You may have raw gold nuggets around there!!!
Congrats on the coinsđź‘Ť
 
Congrats on a great hunt! That's a nice variety with a GW. Merc, Buffalo, and IHP - along with the wheats. Sounds like an awesome permission.
Thanks! I think the permission has more to give up.

Thanks Mark! He found a few nice relics. An ornate suspenders clip, a woman's watch and decorative bead. Also left with a handful of clad.

Back Yard

Way to go digging all those great coins. Let me suggest, after your done with the backyard, go over what your dad hunted and see if you can't come up with something he missed. I did that last week and got a merc, and that pissed off my dad. Well, he's not really my dad, but a good friend.
