I was able to slip out of work yesterday at 10:00AM. I met up with Smittyman and we headed to the home of TNet member Shovelnose, who was kind enough to take us on a hunt. The place we hunted was an old house, and it really looked good. I got a '44 wheatie and a small broken ring. After a couple of hours we headed out.

I went home for a little rest... about 3:45 I got a text indicating that permission had been granted to hit a little spot near my house. As much as I wanted to nap, I wanted to find treasure even worse, so I got up and headed out. I got to the spot about 4:00 and hunted for a little over 2 hours. I harvested about 70 coins, including a three wheat spill of 1912, 1917 and no date. Then my little friend Ms. Merc showed up. NICE.

That is silver coin # 41 YTD.
Thanks for looking and good luck.

Hey OD. Hope all is well.

Ms. Merc gets around quite a bit... I see her pics all over the internet! I am sure that she will pay you a visit in due time. Thx, GL&HH!

I was worn out after digging all those holes yesterday afternoon. I went home, showered, ate and went straight to bed. I got a silver coin, so that makes everything all good with me! GL&HH.
 
You're on a roll, Tom. Keep it up and you'll quickly reach your silver coin goal for the year. Congratulations!

Thanks man. I have found 6 silvers in the last 8 days.

Please come down and hunt in Charlotte sometime... the streets are paved with silver! You are always welcome at my home.

I would have taken the nap..but that's just me:laughing7: now that I think of it....

Great digs, I get the feeling of wanting to get out even though you wanted to nap
