    3hr woods hunt was well worth my time

    First hunt after being down with poisen ivy so I was anxious to get some silver!!! Well I finally made my way to a set of woods that I have been eye ballin for some time now. I was a little hesitant because it was either going to be good or a bust as nothing is really in the area just a clearing in an old areal pix. I was in a rush and jumped all around so when I have more time I will definitely go back and do a more thorough hunt.

    Congrats on the silvers!
    Looks to be a promising site.
    I hope the weather holds up long enough for you to dig a silver half out of there!

    I'd guess the find is from the 50's. Hope that helps you out.

    Nice job on the research, and AWESOME coins (even though they are only 30's and 40's silvers)...LOL, I'm just busting' your chops buddy! That's a great day in my book! Sure beats my finds from a 4-hour woods hunt yesterday...
