Well Nate and I struck out on the silver this weekend. Between the two of us we managed about 13 wheats each for a total of 27. Found some nice early date wheats and Nate found an IH(might post his stuff later) but the silver was not to be had. Still fun finding old wheat pennies. Our silver sense was getting jammed by some other force - maybe the sweat dripping off our brows....

GreenMeanie - I was trying to stick with the Exp II so that I can become proficient using it. I did use the Quattro for a bit.

It was also nice to find some wheat pennies that were fairly decent looking. :)

Nice wheaties. I've been in the same silverless rut for some time. My streak ended today, so maybe yours is over also. HH
