My brother and his wife have been working on a 1840’s house they bought awhile back and I have been detecting the yard about four time so far and have been skunked on silver.
I have found some early wheats a 1912 and 1930’s. Lots of clad in the yard,most interesting of this was a 1972 Kennedy half. I thought for sure it wouldn’t take me long to get a rosie or a merc and possibly a barber.
I’ll be honest and say I was hoping to dig my first seated. Well.................. I’ll let the pics tell the rest of the story!! Thanks for looking and HH.

Skipping all the dimes going far back! It's tough to go older than seated! I haven't done it yet with US silver!
