Congratulations Ron on matching your silver goal
from last year. When your silver sniffer is working,
you are a tough act to follow..... still lots of time
left to find more silver coins, good luck. WTG!!

Hi Ron,

Since this post is a couple days old, I hesitate to congratulate you on 131 silvers for the year, for fear that you're already up to 135.

Nicely done, my friend.
