Had no choice but to go back to the same spot again today. Everywhere else is still too frozen to reach the deeper/older coins. Why I'm able to dig at this place is beyond me, except that it's a small island and only the south end is thawed. When I told Brett last night that I pulled another 3 wheats from there he said "There's got to be more silver there". He was right! Got a nice 56 Rosie and a 34d wheat. The silver came from the north end of the island and had to be chipped out. I gouged the back pretty bad so I won't show the reverse. ;D

Congrats! The silver is piling up a lot faster this year, that's for sure.
