C O L D hunt in Baltimore today with JF.
We started at 28 F and ended at 32 F. No wonder fingers and toes were cold all day.
We were out from 11:30 to 4:30.
First field we tested yielded nothing but clad, nary a wheat between us.
We moved west about 6 blocks to a field that had given me some relics last month and it did not disappoint.
JF started off the silver run with a sterling four-way cross medallion.
Not long after that I dug a vintage silver ring, though the hallmark is worn off, you can tell it's silver.
.
We both managed some wheats, a couple from the 20s and then I dug a 9-inch deep key-slot escutcheon
.
JF had to head home and I hung in there until the sun set behind the rooftops. A 27-28 signal on the Equinox 600 turned out to be a clad dime.
After replacing the plug I got a high tone just on the edge of the plug and from about 5 inches down a coin ball revealed a thin and small silver disk.
I popped the dirt off to read the words "HALF DIME".
This is a first for me, first half dime
