I was able to slip out after work last night. Got almost two hours of swinging in before dark. I went back to the spot that yielded the SLQ on Saturday. The place is really trashy, lots of iron in the ground, and plenty of surface trash. I went really slow and tried to hear the good sounds between the trash. Even though this small yard has been hit by multiple machines and people, it still gave up four wheaties and a 1942 Merc!

Third day in a row that I have found a silver coin. Silver coin #41 YTD.

Thanks for looking and best of luck to you!

The only mercury around here is the one on the thermometer that says it will be 108 with the heat index today! ARGH! How is a brother supposed to go out digging in that? As tough and leathery as ol' Sub is, he doesn't want to add "heat stroke victim" to his list of accomplishments! Congrats on a nice coin, Tom! Sub 8-)

Kind of a special talent that, "reading between the lines", technique, ain't it. ;)

Good job!

LOL. Very well played. In actuality, I try to never leave the orange shaded area. Sweet tea is scarce outside of that area!
