had a hunch on a small yard and it paid off with twins!!

[cjon455]

Hey guys I hit a small yard today on a hunch. I figured it was an old house it had that look about it and there was an old guy out front doing yard work so I pulled in ask permission and he said oh I don't think you'll find anything here but go right ahead and give it a shot if you want. challenge accepted! right away I was having flashbacks of my spot from last hunt that I thought was going to be good, cuz all I was getting was deeper clad, junk,and then finally 70's clad. I figured to focus my concentration on that part of the yard it paid off with a 43 merc! few more pieces of clad later I found this 1941 wheatie, I was running out of yardand some more modern clad later, boom my 43 merc's twin!!, thats silver coin#s 7 &8 plus my 3 non coin silver items makes 11 on the year! I found a spoon that's all beat up. And a destroyed pocket watch. I forgot to take pictures of them cause they're in my pouch anyhow thanks for looking and hh

It seems that 1943 was a good year for dropped Mercs. And 47 rosies.

Yes! Come to think of it I have at least four other 43s
