SILVER ROLL CONTINUES





Got out for a brief moment today - started late and stayed close to home with the weather threatening rain.  Manage to find another mercury dime and 4 more wheat pennies.  Also found over 2 bucks in clad and I think my highest coin total so far this year.  Planning on getting out tomorrow since the weather is supposed to be nicer.

QUICK AFTER WORK HUNT

I met up with T and we tried an area where we had luck in the past.  He has his new coil - good for trashy areas so he wanted to give it a shot.  Nothing doing today - a whole zinc penny between us - he found after I missed it with junk.  We will be crossing this off our list - on to the next spot.

2 SILVER DAY





On a roll - 2 more silver dimes today.  I started early in the morning with a road trip to a place where a church was built back in the 1820's.  The foundation is still there but unfortunately no coins were.   The weeds were down so I could get in and hunt but found nothing but beer and soda cans.  So I hit a school and had much better luck finding a Rosie and a merc along with 2 wheat pennies.  The coins were deep - around 5 - 6 inches easy.  Most of the pennies I found the dates were in the 60's so I know there is more deep silver there.  Found 2 Canadian pennies that were also dates in the 60's.  Will hit it again soon.
