Hey Everyone, hope your all findin' the goods... Hunted at an old house today and only had a little over an hour but started off about 10 minutes into the hunt with a Wheat Cent. Next target about 2 minutes later turned out to be 1944S Mercury Dime, first silver this year for me! Found 4 more Wheaties 1 at a time over the next few minutes. As I was walking to my vehicle I swept the grass down by the side of the house and got a good coin signal. Dug down about 4 inches and got a 1942 Washington Quarter, Silver #2!! The dates on the Wheats were 1923, 1936 and the other 3 were 1940's. This was the first hunt I can remember that I didn't find one single clad coin and hardly any trash at all... Unbelievable!! Can't post the pics today but hope to tommorow and also hoping to get back over there for maybe another hour or 2. Wish me luck. HH Steve
Ok, so I went back Yesterday, which was the day after this original post and stayed for another hour. Found Silver #3 of the year and all at this site, a 1941 Merc Dime, 2 more Wheats unsure of dates yet, one looks to be 1923. Also found 2 other cents 1960 and 1981. Hopefully pics from both days hunts will appear below. thanks for looking and HH Steve
