Hey, I was wondering why you don't rank everyone by posting their numbers in order running from most to least silver found. I'm curious where everyone would rank in that order.

Three Mercs yesterday, 1920d, 1943s, and 1943 plain, for a new total of 126 silvers for the year so far, I'm going to go out a few more times weather permitting trying to hit 130 or 140 I'm going to try real hard for 140 so I can have a full page in my finds album LOL!!!

When does the 2011 Illinois silver total start? I found three today(1-02-11), a 1946s rosie(first silver of 2011)
then a 1918 plain Merc, and a 1943s Merc. so I'm on the board for 2011, my goal is 150 Silver coin this year. I had 127 silver's in 2010.

Well, It sure was a fun 2010. We fell a little bit short from the previous year, but that's okay. I'm sure the numbers will just keep getting lower and lower as we pull up the silver. Congratulations to everybody on here. :thumbsup: Even though some of us found more than others, I'm sure that the hours of hunting time put in were much higher as well.

I didn't post this tally for it to be a competition between us, but just so we can have a little bit more fun with our hobby. If anyone got offended by anything, I apologize. For 2011, I will create a tally as well, and if you'd like to participate, go ahead and post. If you don't, no big deal.

Happy Hunting to all and am wishing everyone a prosperous 2011. :thumbsup:
