Really nice.
I hunted an old school myself today but didn't hit on any silver.
Oddly enough, it too is loaded with nails. I mean, like every 12 inches or so. Coolest things I dug was a 2010 dog tag (first one ever) and a tiny metal GUN game piece. I think it's from the game "Clue".

After seeing your finds I think I'm gonna' go back. I've been inspired.

Congrats on that SWEEEET SILVER!! I just love how it can be hidden underground in the dark for 90 years and pop out lookin' just beautiful; like it was dropped this morning.

Thanks man! I just went very very slow tediously slow! I think that's the only reason I found them!

Those two coins bring back a great memory. My first day out with my new White's detector, circa 1986, produced a silver Washington, and a silver Merc! I've been hooked ever since! Thanks for sharing.
