Permission seems to be coming easily these days, although the spots seem to be sort of dug up or back filled in most areas. The first yard was pretty quiet, but the two kids following me around weren't lol! I gave them both a few cents, they thought it was cool. I went down to America today, and two of the silvers I dug up are Canadian, go figure. The 1910 quarter is a really nice coin, in decent shape, not stained, and I didn't scratch it. Not pictured is the clad and a few wheaties.

Thanks for the replies, I'm just about to get the loupe out and have a closer look at these silvers. Aaah, my favourite lol.

Canada switched to 50% silver and 50% copper part way into 1968, and then again to 99.9% nickel. That gives us Canucks a few more years with the possibility of silver...
