XLT find a hoard of pennies Cronin October 1, 2015Well my best friend and I were going to go dig up some flagstones and I brought along my metal detector. I haven't been able to get out much lately,so I thought why not? We get there ,and I get hunting around the stone,hear a good tone and dig up a penny. Go a little further,get another tone and find another penny. I followed this pattern right off the stones to what looked like a foundation. Low and behold the next tone my metal detector goes crazy! Start digging and the pennies where everywhere! I felt like a kid in a candy store, the excitement contagious! There are lots of wheaties mixed in with a handful of nickles and a few dimes.. I'm still sorting and counting so I don't have a final count. This may take awhile! lol! So thanks for listening and happy hunting!
