Default Long day nets another silver!

I started my day at 11 am at a house that I have hunted before with my DFX. This house was built in the late 1800's in a historic town. The first hunt netted me a whopping memorial penny... Today I also only found one coin. This time I got a dateless Buffalo nickel. I then moved on to a house I haven't hunted before, it's a friend's sister's house that dates to the turn of the century...cool place, still has the outhouse standing and the springhouse with an old barn. It was a short hunt there, but I got permission to come back. In 15 minutes I netted a wheatie and a 1944 Mercury Dime in the first five feet in the front yard. I left there to meet up with Deepbeeps from Buckeye treasure and hunt with him. We went to a nice picnic grove, but coins were few and far between. We both picked up some clad and I got another wheatie. My day didn't end until dark, and there wasn't a ton of coins, but I had alot of fun and got another silver with the E-trac. Here's the pic...still all dirty...

A Buffalo and a Merc make a nice combination!
