Thanks mcmich. Getting another heavy rain now. As soon as there is some clear skies, I'll re-check and let you know.

About two years ago I went for a walk around the neighborhood.
I saw two dimes on the sidewalk, one looked a little white.
It was a 1955 silver dime.
Where it had been and how it got there I don't know.
But I was happy to find it.
This beauty was face down and the back was fully encased with crud. Sure was surprised when I picked it up and seen Liberty just as clean as a whistle.

That is a nice looking half.
That would never happen around here. These guys are relentless.
Thanks plehbah... Masking is the only thing that I can think of that cause me and others to miss this. Place was loaded with all sorts of metal.

That is an awesome find. On top of the ground. Heck all you would find around here is a nickel MAYBE>
Sure pays to re-check the cleared house sites. Especially after a good rain. This makes my 8th silver in this manner.

Nice walking liberty half dollar.
I had a silver dollar that was black and rubed it between my fingers with
comet cleanser and it shined like it was just minted.
Thanks rodgerdodger... Tried to be as gentle as possible. If this one had a Denver mint mark, she would be worth much more.

One of the more beautiful coins minted, congrates!
I agree curbdiggercarl57... For me it's a toss up between the Walker and SLQ... Unless I happen to find a gold coin...
