What beautiful weather!! And I FINALLY have weekends off (for now)!! YAY!!

Saturday- tried several new spots today. Not a dang thing :sadsanta: . Was about to call it a day when I decided to hit a spot that had produced for me a few months ago. Glad I did.

Goodies: 4 silvers ('42 Washington, '53d, '57, '61d Roosies), .925 Italy necklace, 2 wheats ('19, '53d; not pictured). Clad totaled $6.89.

Sunday- Oldies day!! Headed to a new spot I've never tried before. Again, slow going at first. Almost gave up due to the lack of deep signals (and no finds). Stuck it out and pulled some more goodies.

Goodies: '02 Barber dime (full liberty!), no date buff, 1897 indian (full liberty!), 4 wheats ('23, '27, '28, '50d; not pictured), 1902 dog license, old bullet. Clad totaled $7.65 (most of it quarters).

If anyone knows anything about old bullets, please chime in. I'd like to know what kind of bullet this is, and about how old it is/when it was made. Thanks. Glad I pulled some oldies today, it had been a while!!

Pics of this weekends loot are below. Enjoy!!

I'm now at 47 silver coins and 10 indians for the year.

Nice silver Paul!

Your bullet "looks" like it could be a 45-70 (hard to tell without it's diameter). . . if it weighs in around 31 grams it could very well be.
And that'll take down a buffalo for sure LOL.
