Well, today was one great day! I decided to try a new area of the military base where they just tore down and bull dosed the old base commander's house and all the high ranking officer's houses. The first thing found was the Ben Franklin half at 3"! I thought it was going to be another piece of copper from the tear down, but I saw a large silver coin with a reeded edge pop out of the hole, Woo Hoo. I was out there for about 4 more hours before the silver started rolling in again. It all came in the last hour, first the 1952D Quarter, then the 1944D quarter, and the three Roosevelt's, 1947S,1952D and the 1960D. Also I found a memorial penny spill, about (27) and During the whole hunt I found about 16 wheat's. I hope you enjoy looking. HH!! P.S. I think the ring might be silver with plating on it, I have to look at it more.

Hi History Hunter. What post are they doing renovating at? (Not to worry....I am in S. Korea, so couldn't even if I wanted to.) But, I am retired U.S. Army, and wondering if they were doing anything to any of the posts/camps that I have been stationed at.
There will be more........ :wink:

Thanks for looking, it's an Air Force base.
 
Fantastic job on the silver HH. :icon_king:
Way to go on that 57' Franklin. :thumbsup:
-MM-
 
I used to get those Ben's from an old man when I was a kid wish I did'nt like Icees so much then!
 
Congratz on a great day of digging ... those are nice silvers and big Ben is definitely a good one!
