Check out the condition of this merc May 01, 2016 03:01AM |
Hunted a spot I've previously hunted. Took the CTX this time. This spot on previous outings hard to hunt due to the deep tractor tire ruts. Since hay feeding has halted the ground is more level now,,with some shorter weeds trying to sprout.
Where this gent's big John Deere tractor has been over numerous times,,from around 7" this pops out--- read 12-40 on the meter.
The best condition coin I have ever dug.
Looks like it feel out of the mint right where I found it.
I took the clod with dime still in it,,I could see the rim and about 10% of the coin,,and had a hunch it was in great shape.
I told the land owner,,break the clod,,, if it is a 1916d-- would sell very well.
Turned out to be a 1936,, but it doesn't hurt to wish.
lol
Dug a couple wheats and a piece of horse tack to boot.
Only a 40 minute or so hunt. Really just to kill time.
