Well, 2008 is over and it went by fast! I did most of my hunting with my detecting buddies Ron, Richard, and Mike W. Hopefully this year I can go hunting more with Wayne! My goal for 2008 was to dig 100 silver coins ~ I ended with 104 (100 US silver coins and 4 foreign silvers!). Here's a break down:
4 Foreign Silvers (43' Australian Florin, '39 & '61 Canadian 10c's, & '60 Venezualian Bolivar)
86 tokens, other foreign, & medals/medallions
1 Barber Half (1905-S)
3 Walking Lib. Halves ('33-S, '43-S, & '44-S)
1 Franklin Half (1954-D)
4 clad Kennedy halves ('72 to '93)
2 Barber Quarters (1902 & 1910 ~ no mint marks!)
5 Standing Lib. 25c's (1918-S & 4 dateless)
6 Silver Wash. 25c's ('35 to '64)
799 clad 25c's
6 Barber Dimes (1893 to 1913)
34 Merc dimes (1916 to 1945)
42 Silver Rosie dimes ('46 to '64)
1733 clad dimes
1 "V" nickel (1887)
10 Buffalo nickels (1916 to 1935)
19 WAR nickels ('42 to '45)
390 modern nickels
13 Indian Head cents (1880 to 1908-S!)
548 Wheat cents (1910 to 1958)
4968 Copper Memorial cents
I didn't count the zinc cents ~ most too corroded to re-use
____________________________________________
8675 items = $465.29 face value
I had a couple "firsts" ever and 'oldests" ever! My first 1908-S Indian Head cent ~ My first Barber quarter (1902)~ My first pre-1900 "nickel" (1887) ~ first 1945-S "micro" S mint mark ~ first 1949-S Rosie dime (better date) ~ first pre-1900 dime (1893-S) ~ oldest Indian Cent (1880 x2!) ~ oldest Wash 25c (1935 x2!) ~ my first 1942 WAR nickel (x2!).
Thanks for looking!
GOOD LUCK IN 2009!!
