Visiting relative in nearby state, I went to local park and did some swinging just outside the landscaped area, all young trees so I assumed
it was open Park land not long back, iron and mixed signals everywhere, flipped out a big plug, saw green coins and a big silver, yeehaw :headbang:
A family was setting up picnic table nearby so I scooped up what I could see, refilled my hole and left. likely more there, will return
I have dug 4 non-us silver half dollar equivalent coins, this is my first US.
when I saw it in the hole I thought it was a dollar:icon_scratch:
1938 quarter, 44 half, and a 1950 dime.
Thanks for looking and happy hunting all!

Wow. I'm glad others are finding silver pocket spills. I've only found two silvers in a hole once

You got a whole mouthful of old goodies there. I probably would have died from joy overload.
