Where there is silver, there is no wheat.

[BigWaveDave]

There is an empty lot that a church uses for overflow parking, my permission is open for anytime other than Sunday mornings. There are targets everywhere, mostly trash and zincs on the surface. I cherry picked the high numbers, if there was a target below 80, I avoided it, unless it was deep. This is the kind of place that once a target is located, the dig sucks. A layer of gravel beneath the turf, followed with sugar sand. Aside from .53 in clad, there wasn't a single wheat penny to be found...
I am OK with that though, there was plenty of silver!

The 1943 P war nickel, two Mercs, 1927, and 1942 D, and my second fat Franklin in 3 weeks...WOO HOO!!!
The pres. token was a heartbreaker.... thought it was a Large Cent.



Thanks for looking!

BWD...congrats on an excellent hunt! I've yet to dig a Franklin, so yes..color me jealous! Funny thing, I've been hunting a huge soccer complex over the last couple years...and while I've dug enough clad to buy my new Pro Pointer (just quarters!!)...I've dug several silvers, but only TWO wheaties...go figure..I jyst try not to over think this great hobby and simply take what the soil seems fit to give up...great stuff BWD...ddf
