3 RING AND BEST NICKEL DAY


I met J and we tried a couple of new schools today.  The first school was built back in the late 50's so silver was possible.  Neither of us found any but I did find 3 wheat pennies and 2 silver rings - my first this year plus a lot of nickels.  Then we tried another school built around the same time - nothing for me but a "possible" gold ring and J found a wheat.  Not banking on the gold - no writing inside the ring.   Then we hit a school we've hunted before and just clad.  But overall a good ring day plus my best nickel day ever.

WEEKEND HUNT



I met up with T last weekend and we started  where I found my old coin spill.  Neither of found much of anything so we decided to try a park where he and D had found silver.  Nothing for me but clad and T found a couple of wheat pennies.
Sunday I did a short hunt in some woods - again only clad but did find a silver spoon.   I hope I can do better this weekend - weather permitting.
