ON BOARD WITH SILVER - 2021

 

  Well it's the new year and I actually got to detect - No snow in January so far.  I did manage to get on the board with silver finding a mercury dime plus a wheat penny.   I also found a gold plated chain medal.   I'm not sure of detecting today as it has rained a lot and the ground is very wet.  I also found clad.

HAPPY NEW YEAR - I hope this year is better than the last.  I also hope to do a better job of  updating the blog.     Then bucket list this year always starts off with finding gold - jewelry is nice but a coin would be better.  A caped bust silver is always on the list along with a seated quarter or half.  I had a nice silver count last year and hope I can improve on that.  I didn't get to travel like I wanted too but things look to be improving on that.  As long as I can get out and detect - that is what it's all about. 

 

ANOTHER LARGE CENT IN WOODS

 

 I went back to the woods where I found a 1853 large cent hoping for some old silver.  It wasn't old but it was silver - a war nickel and I did manage another large cent.  This one was 1822.  I still think there is some old silver in there and I will give it another shot this weekend.

STILL ABLE TO DETECT

 Well it's December and I'm still able to detect.  I had a nice hunt last weekend finding a war nickel and other goodies.  I'll take this all winter if we can.   I can dress up for the cold.

BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND - COIN AND WEATHER WISE

 

 The weather has been terrific lately - in the lower 70's for November and the detecting just as good.  I went to an past spot and found a silver quarter, 2 buffalo nickels and wheat pennies and another wheat on Sunday.   This coming weekend won't be in the 70's but still not too cold.

LAST FEW HUNTS YIELD SILVER, FIRST V NICKEL

 

 I've been getting out pretty steady and still finding some nice coins.  Found my first V nickel for the year and a silver dime along with wheat pennies.
