FIRST SILVER OF THE YEAR



I went and hit the woods this afternoon since the weather is getting better.  I managed 16 cents and my first silver coin for the year - a 1927 merc.  It came out dirty - thought it was a penny until I saw some silver through the dirt.  Going to be nice tomorrow morning then the rains will make a guest appearance - will be hunting early.

AFTER WORK HUNT

My friend T was working on this side of town so we met up and tried a wooded area we hunted before.  He had a new coil and wanted to try it out - he found a nickel - me nothing.  Then we went to a school where I've had luck with silver but the ground was way to wet so we hit a park.  I managed 51 cents and he - nothing.   He had to get back to work so will give it another shot later.

EASTER HUNT


I hit a wooded area on Easter - a quick hunt before the family dinner.  I managed to find a couple of wheat pennies, my oldest so far this year a 1915 and 1930.  I also found a ring but it wasn't silver like I thought.  I will get pictures - still trying to figure out how to use this new system.

SATURDAY HUNT

I met up with a couple of other hunters Saturday - one old- one new and hit a school where I've had real good luck in the past.  Nothing good for me but the new guy found a Washington and barber quarters and my other friend a wheat penny.  I did manage a flat button.  It's a long story but we won't be hunting there anymore - seems some people don't like that fact that we dig on their fields - that's fine - there are other places to hunt and not worth any argument.  But it was a good run while it lasted.  I did find over 2 bucks in clad.  I'm trying to figure out about the pictures - don't like the new system on the computer - I will try to get better with it.
