My Ugliest Silver Yet!!

[romeo-1]

12 January 2014 and I'm hunting in the fields...everything else is gravy! Only had a short time to hunt so went to the field I've been hunting for nearly 3 years and it's still producing. I hunted an area I had paid much attention to and found a few keepers. I wish the 1937 25 cent was a little older but it's silver so no complaints from me! The ugly silver appears to be a Victorian 10 cent but I haven't examined it yet to try to get a date. I do see a crown and a "10" but it could be early 1900s as well...I know one thing though... It sure is ugly!

Badly fire damaged - I see the 10 & crown as well. I'm surprised you can still get out?

We had a big rain storm and the temperature shot up to +15 Celsius last night...still warm today and all of the snow is gone!

Ugly is only surface deep, beauty is just beyond. Great finds, and thanks for sharing.

Great to see you were able to get out today, I had a ton of things to get done so I stuck around the house. Your right about the dime it's in bad shape but it's still silver and a silver quarter to boot, nothing wrong with that.
How deep is the frost in the fields?

Some parts of the field had no frost at all...other parts and the top 2 inches was soft and then frost down at least 8 inches....

Silver is silver... Well almost....
No really it is, I take all my ugly silvers and save them to one day melt my own bar..
Its better than "no" silver, great finds !!

Keep @ it and HH !!
