Default the old swimming hole

whent to the local swimming hole today.This spot has been "Hunted out" for a long time.Today i got there and started searching along a bank that is slowly eroding away.As i started i noticed a spot that looked like somone had already dug.But i cheaked it anyway,thats when i remembered that i had dug that spot last fall.As i scanned it i got a signal so i dug it and found a 1912 barber dime !and then i found a buffalo nickel about a foot away.Not bad for a hunted out spot.

No date on the nickel.But he does have all 4 legs darnit.This spot has produced well in the past and soon as the water warms up im going to break out the dive gear and see whats at the bottom of this hole,I know of at least 1 dimond ring that was lost here.This spot has been in use for over 100 years so i have to think that the bottom is paved in gold lol will let you all know soon !
