One has to question how lucky those old "Goodluck" tokens are..... they're always getting lost.
But anyway, had the day off today to get my camper ready for the weekend and of course to go detecting.
I went through one of the little old towns I frequent on the way down to my folks place to get my camper. It's about 16 miles out of the way but that's minor.
I decided to go back over some old ground I had detected before. At first all I dug was 3 memorials until I got right along side a chunk of sidewalk. About 6" down was the first proper find of the day, the Hormel token! At that point I had just made the hunt worthwhile.... anything extra was bonus material.
Did some more swinging by an old grown over sidewalk that I had detected probably 10 times and I get a good Indianhead type signal about 7" down. Took me a bit to find what it was but it ended being the lead bag seal! First one I've ever dug! The Soo Line is the old name for the railroad that goes through town.
I kept checking around the sidewalk and came across another digable signal. Thought it might be a wheat so I dug a smaller plug.... bad idea. I ended up smoking the heart charm a bit on one side in the process. Oh well.....such is life.
I did a tiny bit more detecting before I had to take off and got the 1919 Wheatie.
Not bad for a couple hours!
