I dropped my child off at opera practice and had about 30 min to hunt. I went to my old inn spot to see if I could find a quick silver. The first thing found had a broken silver reading, so I dug it anyway. After digging a 8" hole ,out pops a 1953S Roosevelt, (woo hoo!) ! The "s" on the back looks like it was stamped over something to me. Also found 4 wheat's- 1920,1936,1940S,1944S. The piece of lead looks like it was poured into a mold. Well, thanks for looking! HH

Re: Quick 30 min. hunt yields silver and wheats

nice job on the silver and the wheaties! :)
 
WoW! That was a great 30 minute hunt! :thumbsup:

looks like it could be a repunched mint mark but i dont see anthing for that year on my cherrypickers guide. willy.
 
From the pic you posted I can't see anything concerning the mintmark.

Regardless, congrats on the silver and wheat! :thumbsup:
 
That's a pretty good half hour hunt! Congratulations on the silver.
