Quick post, 1946 Walking Liberty Half, 1917 Merc, and a silver ring with the stones missing. Found a badge that has writing on it that reads " The J. G. Brill Co. Philadelphia Pa. Winner seat Reg. in US Pat. Off. This seat is covered by one or more of the following Patents JAN 21 1913, APR 28 1912, ......
Here is a link to the seat

4 hours today, I can't believe how many Halfs I have found there!
Enjoy the pix

Hello treblehunter. Nice finds! Silvers and Wheaties are always great digs but I really like finding obscure identifiable stuff like the "Winner Seat" badge. Good luck and thanks for posting. C9

Thanks, don't be a hater, I'm going to spoil myself forever at this lake.

Brad what is your total silver so far?
Idk, I'd have to go count it.?
Not as much as Scrappy has.

What a nice hunt - loaded with goodies ! go get some more of that .
Tomorrow I'll try again, thanks

I found this little tiny gun, I must of dropped it when I took pix at the lake or it got mixed in with the trash. I could not believe I found it didn't fall through holes in the scoop. I liked it best of all out of today's finds. It was more obscure than the badge. I'll find out later.

Yeah but Scrappy is the Godfather of the NJ Silver Mafia but seems like you moving up the ladder. If he's found floating in that lake I'll assume it was an accident.

I know nothing

Thanks, did you see those Nickels, nice dates on them too.
I have a few halfs in my collection, two or three from the dirt too.

Thanks for the tip on the excalibur Joe, I'm loving that machine!

I wonder what you'd think if you DIDN'T find silver now?
I was three hours before I found that Merc Dave, shortly after came the Half. I was almost feeling it. Ha, I feel like a miner, I'm chasing a vein of silver, old coins and jewelry. I spent allot of time going over the spots I have already spent allot of time, kind of worked my way away from the vein. lol
Its going to happen sooner or later, only thing is I'm confined to a 30 ft X 30 ft area right now. There is still a big lake yet.

Better know as the Silver Bank of Treblehunter!
This is an awesome silver streak your on! Enjoy your summer in the silver water!
Thanks Ms. beeps

Great location. Anytime you feel a little down, just grab your detector and hit the lake for a while. I know it would perk me up :thumbsup:

Another fist full of keepers..:notworthy:
