I haven't been able to post in a while due to a long dry spell metal detecting. My fiance has been finding silver but other than some coin roll hunting finds...I have been in a frustrating zero silver find lately.
But today.....well the dry spell got a little rain today and I was lucky to find some beautiful silvers.

1964 dime in Uncirculated condition! It has nary a scuff on it. Found it about 7-8" under the ground.

and then..... Standing Liberty Quarter with no date readable but hey...it's silver.

Chris found a 1943 Silver (lady head) Mercury dime, not shown. Not too bad for about 2 hrs of swinging the coils

Sorry about the pictures...spilled some coffee on the paper towel we laid our clad coins on when we got home.

Congrats on breaking the Silver Drought.
The Rosie is pretty but any kind of SLQ is hard to come by.
 
Nice way to break a dry spell, Date or no date you have to love a SLQ :)

Thanks for sharing!​
 
That dim looked clad in the pic! Nice Unc coin!
 
Nice job ending the dry spell...I have always wanted to find a silver that is near uncirculated...makes you wonder how many hands touched that coin before you.
 
Great to break a drought -just refreshes the smiles!
 
Great job its good to see your finds .I hear ya on the silver front it always seems the betector goes deeper in wet ground. Hope your silver streak continues I know how much we put into it

looks like you broke out in style, congrats
 
So, if there isn't at least a silver, nothing else is interesting enough to share with friends?

Congrats! (I guess).
 
Great finds! Congratulations!
 
Very nice. Cheers!
 
Congratulations on ending your drought. Very nice finds. Have you ever found any settler sites from the French and Indian war era? There must have been some farms along the shores to supply the fort.
 
Congrats on your coins. SLQ's are always a welcome site in the plug.
 
Very nice finds MG ! A Standing Liberty quarter is a tough find !! Took me over ten years to get one .

When in Michigan we have detected near many fort areas but many of them are protected sites and you cannot detect directly on them. Some of the fields near them have turned up some very nice silver in the past. We have had a few honey holes that appeared to never have been detected. But when in Utah, there are no such areas that we know of except for near old railroad track areas and areas of migration but it is farther and few between here.
 
Congratualtions on the SLQ! :occasion14:
