Default Hunted A Soccer & Baseball Diamond With The "AT GOLD" And Found Silver


I headed out after work for a little over 2 hours across town to a place I hade been eyeballing for some time. The school was built in 1947, and I was hoping to get some older coins. I used the DD 8.5" x 11" coil, as I really haven't got very much time on it. I did get some pennies from the 40's on up and a cool penny from Ireland. Ever heard of chicken scratch? Just look at the coin..... I slipped . I did get another silver dime using the AT GOLD.

It's a coin popper. I bought that digger several years ago. It works great in hard ground. That ball is used as leverage to get the target out of the ground. The fellow who made them passed away several years ago, so I doubt if anyone has any for sale.
