Lake Superior Silver

[WawaDuane]

I pulled over on the highway for a quick stop and spotted a little beach that I had wanted to detect for years and years. The wife gave me an hour (we were still 2 hours from home). Fifty-five minutes later I was two silvers and two wheaties richer and some other junk. I guess I will have to check this place out again.

1955 and 1947 silver dimes.

Nice little 1hr hunt you had.
That nickel is sure beat to death, are you sure it's a nickel or could it be something else?
