BEEN A WHILE - SILVER AND MORE

It's been a while since I posted - I'm still getting out most weekends and finding some good coins. I did manage to find my oldest coin ever - a Roman Nero coin dating back to 54 - 68AD. I found that one in a city park. I'm still getting some silver and wheat pennies along with the clad. I will update the coin total soon as I put the coins in a container in my jeep/

GOT SILVER

I managed to find some silver a couple of weeks ago along with a buffalo nickel. Last weekend I was up north but didn't get a chance to detect since I was with family. I also found a very small silver ring plus half of a wheat penny. I need to do a better job of updating the blog. Finds lately have been far and few in between. My phone is recharging so I will get pictures later.

STILL HERE

Been a while since I last posted but I haven't found anything to show. I have been getting out - just this past weekend and I did manage some wheat pennies but not much else. Now that we have had a ton on rain I hope this will help with digging and deeper targets.

BEEN A WHILE - QUARTERS FINDS

I have been getting out and I have had some luck - found 3 silver quarters and wheat pennies. For some reason I'm not into the detecting season as I would like to be. But I will get out on the weekends for some peace of mind.

A VERY GOOD WEEKEND - AGAIN

Yesterday a friend and I hit some woods with a lot of history and we discovered some of it. We both found silver and some wheat pennies. We know there are more older coins to be found - hopefully next trip. I found my second ever Barber quarter.

Last weekend I managed to find some silver along with an 1800's Indian head penny. I need to update my coin total which I plan on doing this week.

TRIFECTA WEEKEND

Saturday I went to a park where I had found silver before and it did not disappoint. I found a Merc and a Rosie plus a couple of beat up wheat pennies.

Sunday I went out with a friend and tried a park we both had detected many times - nothing. Then we hit some woods where he found a silver quarter and barber dime and I found a barber dime. A 3 silver weekend - I'll take it.
