Now, THAT was an interesting day!

[WHADIFIND]

I do seem to be on a strange sort of roll here lately. Today was
no exception. It was a strangely interesting day. I can't recall the last
time I had such a wide variety of finds:



Seemed to be all over the place today!

BUT....I NEVER tire of this scenario :





I liked it so much I repeated it a few times today!
And, I don't want to say that the rain ain't helping
but....



By the time I got this one out, it was almost flooded!

This next one just added to the interestingness:







Strange piece. It is of some fairly heavy duty bronze/brass.


The nickle-fest continued.


3 whole wheat toasts, ready for the penicillin process.



Just look at how many different coins! LOL




The Merc seemed to hold up the best!





The mint mark looked a bit strange,
but I'll take it!


I think Blingie got hornswagled. (thought it was gold. )

All those DIFFERENT finds!! LOL
I swear, for a while there I was thinking I was going to have a
different item for every single dig!!

Four silvers in one day!?!? Not since the "good ole days!"

Like I said, any of these last few hunts would've been fine for
a final hunt of 2015. But, no, I know me! I'll push it for just one
more and THAT one, the real final hunt, I'll get skunked! LOL

Anyway, thanks for stopping by!

Hey WHADIFIND, glad to see you had an interesting day AND raking up the silver coins! Those Canadian quarters sound like crap hey?

 

[BigWaveDave]

[jewelerguy]

[texjim]

Strange or not, looks like it was a great day! We're snowed in here in Idaho.

 

[Loco-Digger]

Awesome assortment Whadi, you are pulling keepers every day!!! You sure are adding to the season totals.

 

[Old Dude]

Now that is a heckuva day! Very nice assortment of coins. Is that a little gun? Congrats Gary! Great way to end the year if you don't get out again.

I'm thinking it may be a toy gun too. I do recall old squirtguns didn't use a trigger pump to expel water but a rubber ball/bladder that you squeezed.

 

[jeff of pa]

that's allot of silver for one day !
you got as much Silver in one day, That I found all year

Gun is cool Too

 

[The Dirt Pirate]

Nice finds.

Yeah....ain't it!!? LOL

The little gun is one of the more interesting pieces today. Like I said, it is a rather sturdy piece of bronze.
Took quite a bit to bend! The slot on the side looks to me like it might have had a spring loaded slide
at one time. Kind of like one would cock that back and then release the slide to fire. Whatever it fired?

I've never seen one like this.

 

[against the wind]

I think the gun may have been a cigarette lighter.
Congrats on the silver haul. I do love finding Mercurys.

Thanks! I just don't see how this lil gun could have ever been a lighter though.

 

[pepperj]

Nice totals, got to like popping silvers out like you did today.

 

[Trezurehunter]

Nice job on the silvers Whadi.

 

[bill from lachine]

Good score on the silvers.

Regards + HH

[IndianaHunter27]

Wow nice day of detecting WHADIFIND! Yes definitely a great variety of finds,

Well well well, look at you crushing the silvers!, heck of a haul, and another OD to boot, I don't think there's a much better way to close out 2015, unless of course you go back to that site and hammer some more out, happy new year gary!
