Here's the best of the best for 2006 for silver & type coin finds. I also have about 150 wheat cents (not shown) that I found over the year as well as buffalo nickels, several rings/jewelry pieces, and other stuff not shown. I will show all that stuff in other post at a later date.

These coins were all found on 7 different farms, 3 street tear-ups in downtown GR and a few of the newer silver pieces found in several different lakes over the summer/fall.

These have been some of the best finds I've made in years but I got permission to hunt some decent places this year that I've been trying for years to hunt! It took months and months of work swinging the coil for hrs and hrs day & night during those months to find all this stuff.

You can't beat this hobby! This is why we keep going when Memorial pennies, clads and foil keep finding their way out of the ground. And why we keep asking permission to search what experience tells us might be a good spot. Great job!

I have a $500 cam and years of exp. using it! You gotta take pics in "macro" setting to get them crisp/clear and then use a photo editing program to brighten and focus the pics to their full potential.

Hey Lonewolfe

Welcome back it's been a while.

Very nice collection of finds..

Just a suggestion . Why not do a slide show in THE GALLERIES. It's a great feature to have here on TNET and not to many people are utilizing it.

People can make comments in to.

I myself like to look at all the slide show pics.

Awesome finds Lonewolfe, great to see you around and posting again. Seems like a while since we have heard from you. Love the sweet old coins you dug this year. I would say that you had a very successfull year based on just a couple of these coins, let alone the whole lot! Congrats!!!

Smiles!
