Finally springlike

Well, I finally got out on Friday, March 12 to detect! First time since Nov. 5, 2009! Weather has been in 50's for a week now and just large snowpiles remain. Went out in yard and tested soil.....yup lets go dig! First place that came to mind is where I got booted out in Nov. I had found a 1902-s barber dime there and had another hit when I got kicked out! Weighed heavy on my mind for 4 months, and I said what the heck! Was there 10 minutes and found the spot and started digging and sure enough I found that other dime....1898 barber....Yay! Nice start to year, but I was not done. Small area but I checked for 15 more minutes and got another hit at 7" showing possible nickel? Yup it was a nickel alright...1882 shield in good condition....OMG this is the best start I have had in 25 years! I left after finishing this site and went to a park on other side of town that was built in 60's and it was nice. One and a half hours produced a half dollar, 8 quarters, 4 dimes, 2 nickels, and 7 pennies. All were recent except a 1955-d penny. Not a bad start tho for 2 hours.......$3.22 year to date. I want to get out again as soon as my aching thighs heal, Dang I need to have a winter excersize program for this old frame! HH~ANDY~
