TIED BEST SILVER DAY AND MORE



Well I tied my best silver day finds with 2  -- merc dimes - 1937 and 1942 plus I found an Indian head penny - 1908 - my second -  a buffalo nickel - 1920 my second,  and a wheat penny 1942.  This is my best day ever with finding old coins.  I started the day in the woods where I found nothing and ending up at one of my son's school finding the old stuff.  I did try a city school near the valley but only found 27 cents and a ton of junk.  I did do a lunch hunt yesterday and found 55 cents.  The clad total was low but that's okay - I'll take the older coins anytime.
