HISTORIC HOUSE HUNT

I was searching under the LARGE oak tree and got a very strong signal from a cluster of roots. No big deal, I just dug under them and pulled up this!!

I know, no big deal to you guys not located in Florida, but to us that's a good find. It's in poor condition but I'll keep it!!

What makes things even worse is that after I dug this from a hole almost seven inches deep I rechecked the hole for signals and got the same signal before I dug! Turns out that two roots had pinched a 1972 copper penny between them less than an inch down..... and I missed it the first time! Makes me wonder, if the 72 hadn't been there would I have gotten that Indian??

First silver coin from this location

I dug this from just over an inch deep.. an inch of roots that is!! The sun was just setting below the horizon and I couldn't read the dates on coins I was digging so I dug one last signal for the night and got this. I couldn't tell what it was or a date so when I got home 20 minutes later I sure was surprised. My first silver coin over 100 years old!!

Next silver coin

While this coin isn't old it's still silver and still another first for me. First silver Canadian dime.
