The silver dimes were still coming from this picnic grounds that started out at the turn of the 19th/20th century. I found four mercs in fairly quick order and then another worn Barber quarter(1909). I still couldn't believe that there were no silver halves to be found. More wheats and some silver rosies came to light. The sun was shining and I was determined to keep hunting until I found something significant. I kept saying to myself, let me find a half or a token. Then finally I got a strong signal at 6 inches. I thought it would be a half, but it was one of those large Palmolive tokens for a free cake of soap. There's my token, now where's my half. I stood up from digging the token and said to myself "I want a half even if it's a '64 Kennedy. A few minutes later I flip the sod back and see a beautiful..........1964 Kennedy half. After that, I thought the power of suggestion was paying off. I had to go for a battery/ R&R break. When I came back I added some more silver dimes and then got a nice loud reading at 5 inches. I thought let it be another silver quarter, and it was(1946). Two inches away and the same reading reveals a 1950 quarter, but wait there's more. Searching the hole I spied a nice large silver edge, a sweet 1945 Walker.
