Got some nice results from a grassy area across the street from an adjacent county courthouse. About 5 hours of digging yielded 3 silvers: a pair of Franklins (Rosie, both '64) and a Merc ('17). The Merc is in excellent shape. With the digging season nearing its end (at least in these parts), I now have 39 silver coins for the year -- way better than last year. I think my detector and I are getting along :laughing7:. I'd like to hit 40 silvers...maybe more? Good luck to everyone in these final days...

Any idea what the triangle thingie is?

Congrats on pulling those 3 silvers. :occasion14: I just pulled #39 & #40 today. My goal is 50 this season, only 9 weeks left, gotta step it up.

When I read "Franklins", I thought you were talking, half dollars. As in Ben Franklins.
Congrats on the Mercury Dime and the 2 Franklin D Roosevelts. lol

9 weeks? I'd be luck if I get 4-5 before the ground begins to freeze out. All the luck hitting 50 my friend!

Just checked my weather, looks like I'm still going to be around +5 (41F) into the first week of November so I got a minimum of two weeks left woohoo!

Nice finds, hope you grab some more before the freeeze!

Congrats on finding the silver, I don't think I'm anywhere near your 39 silvers for the year. Keep the post coming, love to see what a fellow Sheboyganite is finding....
