Humid, hot, drizzling earlier today... broke out the AT Pro due to the wet weather and hit a house built in 1927 in a small city with a big back yard. Dug a handful of wheat pennies (oldest 1920) but the silver eluded me. Was quite happy with the purple TootsieToy Dragster; I don't have that one... Enough non-trash signals to keep me interested for quite a while. Not sure what the purpose of the Cedar Point souvenir thingy is, but I like it nonetheless.

Big spoon, eh?

To be continued below with the second site of the day...

Continued...

So the rain let up and it was time to move on... I've been waiting for a certain schoolhouse site I gained permission for last fall after the winter wheat was planted, and the combines were out this week! Switched to the Fisher; hard going through the tall wheat stubble, but I didn't feel like waiting until it is plowed. First signal was an Indian Head, and I figured that would be the curse and nothing else would come up today.... but yesssss! Found a fantastic eagle button! (Not real common around these parts...) A silver spoon bowl that had a run-in with a plow is a first for me (it's not stainless or aluminum, rang reeeeallly high, and it shines and feels like silver). All in all a good day.

Can't wait til' the farmer tills it and makes it an easier go.... have another school site that's under corn, gonna be a while for that one.

Excellent pair of hunts! I love the variety of finds both from the yard, and the older stuff from the farmer's field, very cool!
