Semi-Key wheat and a sorta half dime today lol

juju · Apr 1, 2010

Howdy all,
My buddy Brandon and I rolled out at the crack of what was I thinkin, and headed north. We met up with Detectingfreak and headed into Seattle to hunt some sidewalk strips. Washingtonian met up with us a couple hours later. Good stuff has been found in this area before but this was my first hunt in there. It took me a minute but I started bringin the goods to light. My best date was a 1914s wheat. Not 4 inches from it popped out my "Half Dime" . My total for the day was a 1900 Indian, a 1950 half dime. :laughing7:

and 14 wheats. The dates for the wheats are as follows: 1914s, 1916s, 1917s, 1919, 1925s, 1936 x 2, 1941s, 1944,1944s x 2, 1945s 1955d, and a 1957d. All in all an awesome day. Thanks for lookin and luck in the hunt.

Nice hunt Juju and congrats on the "1/2 dime".. :laughing9:

You got some really nice dates on the wheats
and the IH cent looks good too. Not used to
seeing your post without some gold or silver
jewelery in it. Guess there's a first time for
everything...LOL Gold Nuggets :hello:

Those are nice finds.

You guys are tearing it up pretty good this yr. I have found thousands and thousands of wheats. Don't have a 14S or 14D. The NE has the quantity. But you guys have the quality mint marks in the west.

Thanks Nuggets. I still prefer the gold, but won't turn down a chance at oldies. I usually get around 30 or so silver coins a year, along with a few tokens, and tons of wheats sprinkled with an indian here and there. Just makes my loot pile that much more diverse.

Great hunting! Today was a lot of fun, hopefully next time the rest of us can keep up with you a little better lol. Keep us posted on potential sites, and we will return the favor

I like it! :thumbsup:

I'm really glad you ended up getting goodies yesterday! An hour and a half is a long trip and I would have been sad if you didn't get anything. JuJu, Washingtonian and I think this site has been cherry picked for silver before, but someone missed a bunch of wheaties and did not dig the iffy signals. Nice hunt! Look forward to hunting with you again in the future!

Those are some early Wheats! Looks like a great time you guys had.

I think this area might have potential, and be able to accomodate multiple hunters. I will let ya know when I head back up that way.
