Old Fairgrounds, School and Farmer's Union pay off in silver

Hi all,
Posted the whole story and pic's on Today's Finds under "5 silvers in one......."

Found this weekend: 5 wheaties, 1 war nickel ('43), 2 washington silver quaters ('53 & '34), 1 Mercury dime ('37) and one Walking Libery Half! 1945.

I'll attach the Fairgrounds finds here too! What a great weekend!
I really hope you all had as great a couple of days as I did!

HH!
Mark

Mark,
You've been hammering those sites!!!
Is the vegetation dying off pretty good where you are?
I will be heading to the UP for Thanksgiving, if you are around that weekend and want to hit that ghost town we talked about, let me know.

Excellent finds and ya gotta love seeing silver in the hole! Are you using the new Pro coil on your Quatro? I know it fits it and if your not you might consider it as it will give you alot more depth and will amaze you at the amount of coins it will pull from those hunted out areas!
