April 30, 2017 is the exact date of the last time I nabbed 4 silvers in one hunt, until today! Left the Cape before sunrise to beat the heat and headed to one of my favorite old hometown parks. In a matter of minutes I had a wheat and a Merc. Added another Merc, but the best 2 signals were both silver religious medallions, which I personally love to find (see my avatar!). Ended up with 18 & 45 Mercs and 5 wheats, oldest being a 17.

Enjoy the pics and HH All!

You are truly blessed Jeff, congrats!

In passing, I know that some of the medallions are actually blessed by the Pope. Is there any way by
looking at the Medallion if they are and which Pope? Also, are they sterling or coin silver?

Best wishes and swing on!

Congrats on 4 nice silver finds Jeff. I always like the Mercs, but the sterling religious pendants are also very nice.

Very nice finds, it's rare to dig 2 silver religious medals on the same day.

One thing I like about the silver St Christopher medals and religious medals are the fact that no two are alike, ever time you dig one it's unique.
Nice finds!

Congrats Jeff!!
Awesome silver score!
I bet you were surprised.
It was your day of doubles. Double mercs & double blessings.
Was this at "the park" you have scored silver at before?

Looks like you are on a silver journey this year, may the wonders continue!

Thank you for your kind gesture.

Get out there other surprises await!
