Found silver

I went back to my son's old ball field where I found the 4 wheat pennies. I did find some silver a 1941 merc dime. I was hoping I would find silver after finding the wheat pennies. I also found a fair amount of clad - no count yet - will post that tomorrow.

Early morning hunt

Went to my son's old school this morning as the weather is supposed to get hot and muggy this afternoon. Didn't find any old coins - haven't the last couple of trips but did manage some clad 2-q, 8-d, 1-n and 8 pennies for a total of a buck 43. I'll try to get out later weather permitting.

Rain again

It's raining again this morning. Will have to wait and see if it stops, I may check out another park if I can. At least the ground is soft.

About an hour

I went for a short hunt - didn't want to stray too far because of the weather and I left in time as it is now raining with thunder. I visited my local park close to the house - found 27 cents - 2-d and 7 pennies. Any time you can swing the detector isn't such a bad day.

Rest of the day

Here is the pic of my hunt today. Wish the bracelet was gold but no luck and I found a car. I also found a canadian nickel which surprised me - it had a weird hit but dug it anyway.

Best wheat day

I went to several locations today and found a fair amount of clad - a ring, bracelet - along with 4 wheat pennies - 1945,46,52d,55 - at my son's old ball field. That brings my wheat total to 13.  Where there are wheats there is silver - I hope. So I will have to give this area a try again and see. My count total will be the next entry -

Back to school

Once the rains stopped and it seemed decent to get back out - I made my second trip to my son's old school. Still finding coins, but nothing old. I don't think I cleaned it of silver and wheat coins - I will try it a couple of more times before I move on. My second take yesterday was 4-q, 5-d, 2-n and 5 pennies - overall a buck 76.
