Went back to the Chicago Park on Saturday that I had found 5 silver at the previous Monday.

Was another fun hunt. Finds included 4 crusty Indians (1890, 1891, 1893 and 1903), 3 Mercs (1934, 1935S, and a 1939D), 2 Rosies 1952D, and 1954, 2 Foreign coins - an 1870 Spanish 10 Centimos and a Belgium 2 cent coin. Date is worn away but they stopped making this design in 1919. Also racked up 21 wheaties and another Goetz phone token.

Next silver coin will be #100 for the year!

Nice Finds Patrick!

Missed you at Clad's shin-dig.

And by Shin dig, I mean it was quite a shin dig.
 

The coppers are a little crusty but man your silver picking is great! Those are some nice looking mercs!
 

Awesome park clean-up Pocket Spill
 

Not bad Pat! Pretty awesome actually. I should have come back out after work but drinking and detecting don't mix. I would love a full day of hunting. 1 hour hunts aren't cutting it anymore.
 

Congrats on the silver haul :icon_thumright:
 

Congrats on a nice variety of coinage. You sure know how to hit those parks. :thumbsup:
 

your doing a great job finding silver this year pat!
 

Five silver dimes in one hunt? Not shabby, Pocket Spill! Great photos, too. Don't think that's a Spanish 10 centimos though. Think is says "Diaz Gramos".

The "Diez Centimos" denomination is on the other side of the coin
