1909-S Lincoln and silver

[Sovereignelite]

Finally hit that 25th silver coin for 2013 this morning and a 26th silver as well(39-D and what may be a 42-D). Also 16 wheat cents including my first ever 1909-S Lincoln (the second rarest 1909 variety, aprox. $175.00 in VF). The only other wheat that I've found previous to this with any significant value is a 1922-D. Unfortunately Murphy's Law applied itself today. Out of those 16 wheats only the 1909-S got scratched! Also included in the pic is the Palmolive-Peet Good for token from circa 1928 that I found last night.

Thanks everyone! Other than the scratch it's still nice to have. I have more than doubled my mercury dimes this year: I only had 11 all time before this year, now I have 23. My record so far this year is 26 and counting. I know some other guys find 50+ silver a year but there are no good parks around here that still have silver. The last silver I found in a park here was in 1992! Think I will set my silver goal to 35 now. Nine to go!

Nice silvers. They have been a little scarce for me this year.

I hunt private property exclusively so that helps.
