Wheatfield, silver and my wife's robin egg ring, what a weekend! Lionhrt's Best!

Got a phone call from Krazyglue (Pat) Sat. morning. He mentioned something about hitting an older school about 15 min. from me. He had seen this place on his way home from work last week, we're guessing maybe from the 20's. Anyways they came over to my place and we finished watching the Cubs win another game ;D, then hit the school. The grounds really looked promising (Wish I had some pics) as the school was abandon. Actually it looks kinda eerie. The diggin was easy as there is still quite a bit of moisture in the ground. We hunted Sat. afternoon for like an hour and a half and I had my best day. My first multiple silver day!!! ;D Finally ::) And we got out again this afternoon for acouple of hours

I pulled this on the first signal Sat..... thanks to Krazyglue for cleanin her up for me, it was real ugly! I need to get me one of those Dremel things!!!!

Looking forward to this season for sure.

Thanks for looking.

Your foreign coin is a Japanese 10yen piece. Not worth a lot, unfortuately.

Nice job. Lot's of good finds. When you find multiple silver in a day it is a good day. Multiple silver with lot's of wheats is fun. :) Any good date wheat pennies?

I dug up one of those 10 yen coins earlier this year..there seems to be alot of 'em around.

Great stuff, I'd go back again and get some more of that silver.

HH,
Nat
