    Silver Sunday - Mar. 28

    Howdy all:

    My hunting plans were in flux this weekend as a few plans fell through. I decided today to hunt a 1900 house I started last fall. My previous hunt here of two yards produced nothing of note. First, I hunted a nearby older house/barn site and found lots of large rust relics. I opted to head back to the 1900 house and hit the unhunted side yard. I got a good signal under a bird feeder and was thrilled to unearth my first Barber dime! (1911) Two steps later I got another good signal and out pops my first Barber quarter! (1916) Now I'm really pumped!! Further gridding produced a '23 Merc in the same area. The owners plan to do some landscaping this spring so you can bet I'll be back soon for more gridwork.

    HH and thanks for looking,
    Michiganne

    You go sister! You have what it takes , hit that place before and during the landscaping. They will probably dig up something out of range of your detector, so stay on it. Good luck.
