You Just Never Know..

I wanted to hunt a bit before the rain sets in for the next few days. I decided to go to a fairly recent permission that is an early 1900's Farmstead with the house still standing vacant. I have been there twice, once with each of my daughters. The whole yard all around the house is trashed from renters living there. I know there has to be some Old there so I set the Legend up in Pitch with the Tone Break set to 40 and started wading through toward the well house. The first target I dug is pictured. Not all that quiet of a signal (only 4" down) but it was tight and I wanted to see what a 58 was.  1 Troy ounce .999 Silver. You just never know what you might find anywhere. I bet some kid got a good whoopin for losing it.

The "XX" is from the second run of the coins, they sold more than they thought they would.

Case is the pocketknife company. XX is their long-time mark for quality.  Zippo is their sister company & they put out a lot of Limited Edition items. I'm not sure how many of this version were produced, but not that many compared to a Mint run on a coin.  It is a memorable find for me, that's for sure.
