Had a cold(and slow) start to the day. I ended up getting three firsts for me personally. I finally got going on something and found a wheat penny to start it off. About 10 minutes later while loosely gridding out this area, figuring there outta be silver in here if these wheats were dropped. I then got a banging quarter signal, figured another pop top. Well, thought for sure that's what it was when I saw it peaking at me on the side of the hole I just dug. Started cleaning it off a litte and noticed it was my first silver of the year and also my first silver washington. Sure, last year I dug 1800's and 1700's silver, but only one 1900's silver. lol Anyway, it's been mangled by something and it's a 1954. Silver is silver though, right? Not too long after that I got a nice 70-71 vdi and figured for another wheatie. Nope, a KG the II copper. Talk about a jump in age difference in coins!! Hit a little dry spell then eventually hit on a dime signal and turned out to be a 1928 mercury dime, also my first. So I had a pretty good day I think. First for a washington silver, first for a mercury and first time getting more than one silver in one day...add on a colonial copper and that's a fantastic day in my book! Thanks for looking and happy hunting!
