another hunch hour hunt ~ another SILVER DIME!

[oddcoins]

Hello!

It's kinda slow in my office so I took a little bit of an extended lunch today and headed downtown to do a little detecting! Here's what I managed to dig today:

1954 Rosie dime (Silver coin #85 this year!)
1940-S Wheat cent
1942 Wheat cent
1956-D Wheat cent
4 clad quarters
10 clad dimes
2 nickels
19 Memorial cents

I had an older gentleman watching me for a few minutes ~ he watched me dig the 1956-D Wheat cent ~ he thought that was AWESOME, so I gave it to him ~ it was a super treasure to him (no biggy for me obviously)! The 1954 Dime and the 1942 wheat cent are "P" mint ~ kinda weird ~ usually we dig "S" & "D" mints here in the west!

I took a picture of the silver dime before and after I gently cleaned it up.

Thanks for looking!
Neil

Congrats on your 85th, and your 86th.

I recently met an 81 year old dude( so he said he was) and he waxed poetically on how as a young paper boy his pocket was often filled with buffs, mercs and IH's.(He said they don't make coins like they used to.)I myself remember how as a young boy I used to dump moms piggy bank on the kitchen table so I could line up the wheats by dates.

Good luck,
HH.

your silver coin is very nice well worth getting the sack for!

 

[Detectingfreak]

Yeah thats right up here in the west those are the only mint marks we get! D and S. You will be lucky if you get anything else. But I simply cannot find another silver coin in WA. I know they are there. At least in oregon you guys are scaring them up out of the ground! I have only found one silver coin this year. Congrats on the silver dime! I would take detecting during my lunch break anyday instead of work

Keep on hunting!
