Nothing to write home about, but I did find some silver! (Updated with Brooch)

[Stormtrooper154]

Made it out for a few hours to a friends 1916 house. It was still very dry but it started raining so I had to cut the hunt short. I found a neat old brooch of some kind also, but I have it tumbling for a little bit...Seems to be copper. The property has a lot of deep iron, so I went very slow and navigated through the trash and found a few coins. Here are my finds for today...

1939 Quarter
1940-S, 1944-S, 1948-S wheaties
1941, 1959 Nickels
3 Clad Memorials, 3 clad dimes.

Looks like my decent finds from today. One silver quarter and some wheats. I found a crap load of clad, too.

Good work, hit it again tomorrow. There has to be more silver there.

Storm,
Congrats to you on the silver. I'm dying to find a silver coin again. I'm having a silver drought lately.
At least I can sit and stare at the coins you sent me this week.
Way to go,
MM

I thought I was going to get skunked from this house...But my first coin dug in the back yard was the Quarter! After spending 3 hours in the front and only having Wheaties....I was like, Thats what I'm talking about! LOL

I know you really want to find some silver coins so I am sure you were pumped up when you found it! Fantastic... glad to see you hit something you wanted!

Storm - Nice finds. Silver is always awesome to see when you're digging. That brooch is pretty interesting as well.

I like that brooch, and you brought home silver. That's a pretty good day in my book. Way to go!

Silver quarters are great finds these days!!!

Storm don't sell that silver quarter short, a silver quarter or half dollar is a pretty good dig these days, nice! You still using your mom's coil or did you put a real coil on? (running and ducking)

Oh no Charles!!! I am happy with the silver, dont get me wrong. I am thrilled to death to get another silver quarter...my 2nd since I started detecting 8-9 months ago! Both this month

As for my mommas coil (giving you a head start), Yes..I am still using it. I sent my slimline into Sandy last week to exchange for a EX2 coil. I like the 10x14"...Covers lots of ground but I sure could have used the stock one today!
