A Frog, 2 Rosie Dimes And 8 Wheat Pennies

[tabman]

We had a little break in the weather today. The temperature dropped a few degrees and the humidity was a little lower, so I decided to get some swing time in. The first site was a mid-fifties home that was shaded and look promising. As hard as I tried I couldn't find but one Rosie dime, a few wheat pennies, some clad coins and lead frog. I sure thought I had some silver cornered when I got my search coil over that frog.

It's was time for me to move to another location, so I decided to go back to the last site where I found all those Rosie dimes to give it another going over. This time I started out with my F75 and grid searched everything in both directions. Other than a few wheat pennies and some clad coins, I did unearth a small coin spill containing 2 wheat pennies and a Rosie dime.

I may not be finding much, but I'm doing better than I did last Summer, because I didn't even go detecting for around 4 straight months and I still got over 250 silver coins in just 101 hunts. I like to detect in cool weather! Detecting in hot muggy weather is miserable.

Thanks! I'm not sure if I'll reach 251 silver coins like I did last year, even though I'm getting in more detecting time this Summer. I'm going to need a strong finish this Fall and Winter to even come close to breaking that record.

Can't say that I've ever dug a frog! Cool find though.

You found fish bait and a sinker at the same time. Congratulations on the finds.

Thanks! That was last year, I'm not sure what the silver coin count is going to be this year, because I haven't counted up what I've bagged so far. I may end up doing more hunts this year and end up with less silver coins than I did last year. Time will tell.
