    2 silver day and clad

    Went out with D-Dub and L4S for about 6 hours. When They left I had one silver but I decided to stick around and look where I found my 1945 Merc. Found a 1947 Rosie to go with it. Found a green wheaty that was so green I cant read the date. Thought it might be a IH, but no such luck.

    Re: 2 silver day and clad

    Man you guys kicked my a#* today. At least I got 8 wheaties ( I think) They're all super green like you said your was. Maybe there's an IH hiding in there somewhere.

    So I take it those ultimate frisbee guys left? Or were they playing around you?

    Great hunt out there today. Can't wait to get in the water and finally get some pointers from you.

    Ha! Someone got L4S if only for a day! Nice coins and keep Jon out of the water, if possible. I got a thing for those bottlecaps in the wetsand.

    "They're all super green"

    I hate that our soil works havoc on pennies like that. I have been working an area loaded with swampy land and they are particularly corroded. I think most are Indian Heads but I can't tell. What's best to clean them?

    Hey Jim, nice hunt

    I think you're one of a select few to ever get the best of Jon on the turf

    Nice Job on the 2 silver day... Sounds like it was a beach hunt from the details, but I could be wrong...

    Don't worry L4S, once you learn the 4 tones on the bounty hunter, you'll be doing great.
